-Judges' comments-
‘This painting has a gentle feeling.’
/ Katsuhiko Hibino (Artist)

I'm most interested with this. Moon, bonfire, and smoke, whole images make an otherworldly atmosphere.
He has a good technique not to dig deeper. Unfinished creative work is very attractive.
/ Yoko Yamamoto (Etcher)

Colorful. That has a surrealistic atmosphere. He metamorphoses the usual townscape into the dream world.
/ Masahiro Shino (Curator of Osaka City Museum of Fine Arts)
