Happy Travel – Japan tour

Happy Travel – Japan tour

My First Japan Tour as a Tour Leader!

I was a Tour Leader for the Japan tour for the Art Gallery of NSW and we travelled in Japan for 11 days in December 2024!

We were very lucky with the weather. Warm and no rain. Walking in Tokyo and visiting many galleries were enjoyable in warm weather; we also got to see the beautiful Mt. Fuji. It was warm most of the time, but we had snow for a short time and some of us watched the snow falling from the onsen bath – hot springs in Hakone.

I was very fortunate to have a group of fantastic people and wonderful local tour guide, Mayumi.
11days in Tokyo-Hakone-Kurashiki and we visited many galleries and we enjoyed the Tokyo architecture walking tour.

Exhibition in Japan

Exhibition in Japan

Group Exhibition in Japan has opened and it looks great!

The Japanese professional painters’ group exhibition “Pont des Arts Japan” at the Aichi Prefecture Art Gallery in Nagoya, Japan has opened.
It is horner to be a part of their 30th-anniversary exhibition.

Big thanks to the widely known artist & founder, Mr. Soshin Okumura, who invited me and helped me to frame my work in Japan.

Soshin Okumura shows his solo exhibitions regularly at Mitsukoshi, Takashimaya and more. He is my favourite artist and he still paints every day.
The exhibition looks great! Congratulations to all the fellow artists!
