I love to express a sense of energy and flow using a variety of mediums. The larger canvases allow me to really explore my skills as an artist.

Deepest gratitude, Etsuko

Art is my passion…

When I approach a canvas, I feel I am alive!  My inspiration comes from nature, organic shapes, feelings and memories, from Japanese calligraphy and Ikebana practice.

I enjoy working with acrylic paintings.  I love layers, textures and exploring other mediums, such as pastels, pencils and crayons with acrylic.  I like to create an organic movement and feeling with my brushes, wedges, palette knife or whatever I can find in my office or kitchen.   Sometimes I wonder whether my neighbors notice me singing and dancing while I am in the studio.

Most of my creations are modern impressionism and abstract styles.  I like to express a sense of energy and flow. 

“The richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration.” – Claude Monet
