IKU Oseki

I am always interested in human emotions, human activities, and human interactions. I also like my paintings to be “talkative” like a companion you are sitting across from. During the process of my painting, I discover subtle nuances of human expressions, the emotions involved, and emerging stories. I want the stories to continue, to be told by the painting to the viewers.
