Style

Having learned from tea ceremony ceramic masterpieces, I have accumulated the sense of beauty of old ceramics, and am trying to create ceramics that will blend into our modern life. I have especially been conducting in-depth studies on the black glaze that is made only from the material of Shitoro ware. I will continue to pursue new styles and keep up with my challenge.
