These are descriptions of the work in English. If you are interested, please take a look. Some figures have their own names shown in the title. 1. Year of the rabbit I drew a rabbit I had before. I used gansai pigment and chalk whiting (gofun). 2. Jealousy [longing] I painted a figure longing for the moon and vaguely wishing he could be like a moon. 3. Child in the shadows I painted this as part of my exercise in full-body drawing. I was careful to create a sense of transparency and fragility. 4. Yue (meaning “reason”) This is my favorite child. I was conscious of fragility and drew her face to look discontented. 5. Mare (meaning "Rare gift”) I painted this image to reflect the image of a kind and talented but fragile child. 6. Nashiro This is a child who is always observing different things. I painted this picture to show his stubbornness/clouded mind. 7. Meditations I painted the kind of scenery and images that flow in his head when he paints a picture. 8. The truth I painted the figure in the forest, suddenly shedding tears. I was conscious of showing light in the midst of sadness. 9. Never hide I was conscious of the miasma in my head and the whirlpool of emotions that I wanted to portray. 10. Secret matter I painted a mystical picture of a child who rarely wakes up. 11. Premonition I depicted the anxiety and anticipation when I had an idea, a hunch, or some other realization. 12. Trick or treat! I drew this image with the impression of Halloween's mysterious atmosphere and blurred boundaries in mind. 13. Overflow This is the current RU-vid icon. I depicted a variety of information and emotions circling and overflowing outward. 14. Recreation I painted an abstract image of a memory of going to the park with a friend and what I thought and felt at that time. 15. Twinkling stars I painted the image of an angel who suddenly landed on the cluttered impression of the day before Christmas. 16. Awakening I depicted a moment of awakening consciousness triggered by various experiences and memories.
