I wanted to draw something, but I didn’t know what to draw. I just walked near my house. People talking at a cafe, people taking a break at a convenience store, people sitting on benches talking on the phone. I looked at the faces of the people sitting there. There was a strange peace on their faces.
For six months, I observed people and drew pictures without any particular theme. One day, I felt like that. When did I take a break?
Anxiety appeared after I quit my job and start painting. Cause I started what I want to do, I have to work really hard. That thought spread through my mind everyday. It was a life without holidays. But I also had a chair where I could sit for a while. That’s who I love. When I was with those people, I was able to rest for a while.
I want to ask you.
What is your chair?
<When the warm and fluffy warmth spreads to your cheek – neck – and shoulders,
As if it were a lie, sleep came over me. Let’s sleep little more.>

<Sometimes it’s better to look at the same place than facing each other.
I like to listen your stories that your eyes made.>

<On some cold days like today, I don’t want to step outside the house.
But please wait 3 minutes. Isn’t it good?>

<That’s strange.
Sleep comes so well when I sleep on your shoulders.>
