Description
About artist: Yoko Akino was born in Kyoto, Japan. She moved to Ireland in 1996 and joined Graphic Studio Dublin where she has worked ever since. She lives by Carlingford Lough on the Cooley Peninsula in County Louth.
About artwork: I grew up near Kyoto with my grandmother Fuku Akino, a well-known painter working with traditional Japanese pigments. From her I learned the qualities and the spirit of art; that an artist should be fearless and experimental in outlook while respecting and learning from the vision and techniques of the past. Apart from the time spent at her side I am self-taught.
