Keiko Shiozaki Exhibition "Rose Universe"

This is a memorial exhibition for the artist Shiozaki Keiko, who left behind many quiet, powerful works using roses as a motif, with her outstanding expressiveness.

What is realism? Why do I want to paint? Why roses? Why lotuses?

As I painted the rose wall, I wondered if I wanted to paint the inside (heart) of a rose.
