“To be creative means to be in love with life. You can be creative only if you love life enough that you want to enhance its beauty, you want to bring a little more music to it, a little more poetry to it, a little more dance to it.”

― Osho

After three months in Japan, I am finally back to my atelier in Berkeley.

These beautiful flowers from my love and neighbors welcomed my return both in the car and at home.  How pretty, how sweet. I am well and recharged, and excited to get back to work. Thank you all for those who sent me beautiful gifts, warm thoughts and messages – I’m so touched by your kindness, and it really encouraged me to stay strong.

Another happy announcement… the new sign of for my atelier, “Atelier Towa” (アトリエ咏遠), is officially up on the building directory at the entrance!
