About The Artist


I was a child who liked painting. In my elementary school days, I was very busy painting cartoons on notebooks which were coming around to me from my friends during class and could not remember at all what the teachers taught. I built my own company named TAMT Co., Ltd. in 1979. While doing entertainment business, I have been painting pictures, making craft and writing essays. I used to run a small shop, "Ebisu-dou" in Asakusa. At that time, I have created my original character, "Kinoko-san". I made clay-crafts of Kinoko-san and have been painting Kinoko-san after that. The shop has closed, however, I am still doing creative works at my home/office/atelier. Recently, I am using used materials for recycling. Also, hoping that human beings and animals live together peacefully and happily, I am now painting animals on canvas. My passion for “art” is expanding!
