Midori seeks to share the wild, random nature of life through watercolors. She is fascinated by the serendipity of the medium. They seem to have a life of their own. Midori began her artistic journey during high school, painting with India ink. She foolishly put away art when she entered college. Then, in 2013, after raising a family, she found it again after 35 years. Since re-discovering art, Midori has continuously studied drawing and watercolor through workshops and books. Many describe Midori’s work as Sumi-like. Midori likes to describe her work as a cross between conventional Chinese ink paintings and impressionism. Whatever the subject matter, the most important thing is that the art communicates the feeling that the scene or subject evokes.
