2015. 12. 25. Awesome Christmas present

 I received a book from Dolly Dolly. Dolly Dolly 2016 Winter special edition ‘After school Library-The world of iMda’. There’re 8 pages, and the pictures are really awesome. I appreciate artists, cameramen, and Mr. Hayashi of Risubaco. Thanks to them, I feel like my dolls shine.

                   2015. 5. 15. ‘The heart of Maria’ moved to Ohara, Kyoto

 A doll gallery ‘The Heart of Maria’ moved to Ohara, Kyoto from Shibuya. In celebration of that, they have an exhibition. Katan, Kohizuki hime, Miyura, Nakagawa, and creative dolls and Japanese traditional dolls are displayed.

 On the day, guests are just around 10 people. So the owner of the gallery took some dolls out from boxes and showed us with a detailed explanation . It was impressed that he cherished his dolls.

                   2015. 5.4. Yeonnam-dong

 It’s been 6 months to move to Yeonnam-dong. We moved after Bada passed away because we were worried that Bada might could not adapt to the new environment. Anyway Yeonnam-dong is a pretty town. There are many ateliers here. I found a cute poster ‘Making Yeonnam-dong’ on atelier.

 This schedule was with my student, Yu-Jeong. I was with her for whole 3 days and it was pleasant and better than being alone. I’ve been working with her over for 10 years (Time flies). Sometimes I hit a slump or had bad days, but I appreciate her that she was always with me.

I am busy during the week days because of finishing work for Petite Gian's Bisque Doll. It takes a long time to finish it even though it is a small doll. Finally I finished them. Proud of myself :-)

                   2015. 1. 17.

I had been so busy in 2014.
So It's already 2015 even though I couldn't say hello to people who I thank. So I feel I owe them something.

First of all, my dear fans,
"I truly appreciate for everything last year. m( _ _ )m Thanks to all of you, I am happy to make dolls today. I will always appreciate for that and try to work harder and better."

To me, fans are the reason why keep making me work with dolls.
Also, I'd like to say 'Thank you' to Japanese artists who said 'OK' and worked with me.
"Camelliaさん, GGさん, Koqumazaさん, Muikhacoさん, and Mamechibiさん, I really appreciate you" How can I thank you enough?
