Maki was born on Hokkaido, the northernmost island in Japan
and spent many formative years in a small village by the sea.
She loved the sounds, colours and movement of the ocean.
Maki first became interested in art in high school, joined the painting club there
and went on to study painting in college. She has held exhibitions in Japan
and, since moving to Queensland, Australia,
now has yearly exhibitions at:
Marks and Gardner Gallery on Tamborine Mountain each February and
Main Street Gallery in Montville each September.
Her work is also shown at Creative Arts Gallery at the Hyatt Regancy Coolum, Sunshine Coast
Some of Maki's recent paintings can be seen on-line at the above gallery homepages.
Three books of her paintings together with poems they have inspired,
as well as a children's story she has illustrated, are published by Mountain Dreams Press
Maki's dream boxes, birds, and wall hangings can be bought in our on-line shop.
Her ceramic work carries the same soft and mysterious spirit as her paintings.
