Hi, my name is Makiko Kimura and I am the hands & heart behind the paintings on this website. I am a portrait artist from Japan now based in Sydney, Australia. I hope that my painting will inspire you!
Artworks: 6
I am an artist whose passion for painting is deeply rooted in my life experiences. I was born in Japan and later immigrated to Australia at the age of 35. My journey was not an easy one, and it was filled with challenges that forced me to abandon my dreams for a while. However, my perseverance and determination led me to rediscover my passion for art when I turned 40.
My paintings are a reflection of my personal struggles and triumphs. My work primarily features women figures that convey power, desire, and a wide range of emotions. My art embodies my struggles as a woman and an artist, and it resonates with anyone who has ever faced similar obstacles. My pieces are ranged from small to large scale, and they are infused with colours and intricate details.
My vision is to touch people’s hearts through my art and my story. I believe that everything I create is a reflection of myself and my journey of self-discovery. I strive to nourish my art with love and positive attention so that it can grow and inspire others. I am truly passionate about sharing my work with the world.
I currently reside in Sydney, where I live and create. I hope my dedication to my craft and my determination to pursue my dreams serve as an inspiration to many!
