at the exhibition "VOCA" by recommendation of Masanori Kagioka, the director of Kochi
prefectural museum of art (at that time) in 1997. She was awarded the prize for encouragement

color that spread among the canvas, drip lines of paints, and the fragmentary figure, for example,
cars , fruits, plants, common objects, etc. The particular way of her paintings that like a mixture
of abstract painting and representational painting attract the attention of viewer. Sometimes it
