Fumie Shimaoka
From an early age, she loved working at my desk and concentrating on moving my fingers, so I enjoyed going to the Montessori classroom. Expected to be good at origami, I got a job to fold linen such as napkins at a hotel, and spent my leisure time doing penmanship, lilian, and knitting. Meanwhile, one day, he suddenly developed acute edema, which is one of the symptoms of keratoconus that is more common in people with Down's syndrome. Then, I started drawing bold and detailed line drawings with my own water-based pen.
The characteristic of her work is that she draws her favorite things and feelings by connecting small circles and cells with a unique sense of color. Initially, he drew monochrome works, but gradually he had many colors, changed shapes, and the fragments proliferated, gradually establishing his current style.
Her inscription on Shikishi when she graduated from high school is"interesting because unexpected things happen in life."Currently, while attending the workshop, he spends his days relaxing and enjoying creative activities at the table after having dinner with his family.
