Draw multiple fan shapes one on top of the other in order from the smallest to the smallest, then use a grooving stick to mark three rows of dots on top of the fan shapes. The more calm I am, the more beautifully arranged the dots will be. Are you really imagining something, or are you just enjoying the movement? Only he knows what he feels when he draws the whole thing. The wallpaper in his room is covered in all directions with logos and anime characters he has drawn. Award-winning comment|Mr. Mizukami/Mother This time, Mr. Mizukami’s mother gave us a comment about her thoughts on receiving this award. “I am honored and very excited to think that Shiraku’s work will be made into paper cups and pouches and will be held in the hands of many people from various countries on JAL planes. We hope that it will bring smiles and comfort to people, and provide an opportunity for people to learn about the art of people with disabilities.” Heralbony will continue to push the careers of artists to new heights and work with co-creative partners to deliver “uniqueness” to society in various forms, with the aim of creating a society that respects diversity.
