14⟩ In the past few years you’ve really geared up your artistic efforts. What brought about that change? How much time do you spend painting per week?

This is easier to remember. Back in 2006 I was walking through Shibuya, and I happened across an art store with an easel on sale. It might seem a little mundane, but I’d never owned an easel before. After that things just progressed. I had been on a painting hiatus for a few years, and after I started again I realized how much I had missed it.

It also helped that the first painting I did in Tokyo is still one of my favourites (Shiro) and I thought to myself ‘hmm, I’m pretty good!’ ha.

As for how many hours a week I paint, well it depends a lot on my work schedule and what other things are going on in my life, but generally I paint anywhere between 3 and 15 hours a week.

15⟩ Explain me have any famous artists influenced you? Has Japan influenced you as an artist?

Actually no. To be honest before I started painting I didn’t even know any famous artists. Now of course I do, and admire a lot of them. Currently I’m very interested in the works of Monet and Dali. I’ve definitely been influenced by Japan though, which is pretty obvious when looking at a lot of my work from the past two years.

16⟩ If you could pack in your job and become a painter full time, would you? Which of your painting types do you think is most likely to become commercially successful?

Of course, I’d be there in a second! Hard to say which of my painting types would be most successful though, people all seem to have different opinions, Just because person A likes painting X is no guarantee that person B will like it. However generally speaking, I’ve found that my torii painting series has been the most widely liked and successful so far.
