Fumie Shimaoka

From an early age, she enjoyed working at a desk, concentrating on her hands and fingers, and enjoyed attending Montessori classes. Her skill at origami led her to a job at a hotel folding napkins and other linens, and she spent her spare time learning calligraphy, Lillian, and knitting. One day, she suddenly developed acute edema and was feared to go blind, but miraculously recovered and after correcting her eyesight with contact therapy, she began to draw bold and detailed line drawings with her water-based pen.

Her work is characterized by her unique sense of color, connecting tiny circles and cells, and drawing her favorite things and thoughts. In the beginning, she drew monochrome works, but gradually she started to have many colors, changing shapes, and the pieces multiplied, gradually establishing her current style.

Her motto, which she wrote on a piece of paper when she graduated from high school, is "Life is interesting because unexpected things happen. Currently, she spends her days at the work center, enjoying her creative activities at the table after having dinner with her family.
