Started “PUCHICA”

“PUCHICA”

I named my products named after my dog “Puccho” and me. I would like to expand my business with the aim of creating fun-to-use products with a slightly strange and cute world view centered on my artwork. Also looking for friends to work with and places to sell products. Especially overseas:)

July’s fair is a tribute to Masterpiece paintings. PUCHICA” will be making Potteries, accessories, tote bags and more. Please check it out!

Painting in progress

I have moved from the clay phase to the painting phase, and July will be a non-gallery flatbed fair. About 15 paintings, mostly small, are planned for the fair. Be cute!

I recently visited my favorite Matisse exhibit and am feeling more positive about the bright colors.

Pottery art clay shaping

I spent the national holiday quietly making clay. Do you know what shape it is? I’m excited to see if I can make it look kawaii.

After I started working with clay, I began to pay attention not only to ceramics but also to sculptures, plastic models, soft vinyl, and other three-dimensional shapes and coloring methods. Recently, I have come to feel the uniqueness of little shapes and brush strokes, and I think that the world changes so much when I do it myself.

Last week I pre-checked for the July fair. It is time to concentrate on production.

The zine is being reprinted to change the binding method. More details will be posted over the weekend.

We also accept client work (=^x^=) It is fun to create with a team.

Wishing you a good week.
