Toward 2023
Hello, my name is Wakako Kiyoshi.
Lately I have been so occupied with my own work that I have been reflecting on the fact that I am not promoting it enough.
To be honest, it is often painful.
I think I've drawn a good work, and even if I present it, I can't deny that I'm not good enough if I don't get a reception, but drawing a work and speaking at spaces and so on is a big task that I can't handle.
It's not that I haven't sold well, so I don't think it's right for me to be so whiny about it.
I've tried to keep it to myself, but it's still painful!
I've been able to draw good works. What's wrong with it?
I've been spending my time lately thinking like that.
No matter how hard I try, it's all for naught. But I can't give up on the road ahead.
I have a smoldering feeling that I don't want to give up painting.
I gave up painting once. I don't want to do this anymore. I thought, "If it doesn't lead to anything, I might as well give up.
But I couldn't give up and continued to paint. I want to live by painting, and I am clinging to the idea.
It may not look good, but I can't give up. I recently realized that I am so clumsy that I am surprised at myself.
To be honest, I wish I were more like this, or that I wasn't in this situation. I often think so. But I believe that there is a world that only I can depict now, and that I can create works that will reach people who are struggling in the same way.
I have no choice but to believe that.
Lately, I have been really frustrated, and there are more and more times when I wonder what I can do, but I will continue to do my best in my own clumsy way.
I want to become an artist who can live in someone's heart.
I want to draw worlds and characters that will be burned into someone's heart.
I am still unwavering in this desire. I am sure that I will continue to draw pictures even if it is painful.
I am Wakako Shimizu.
I am sure that I can reach someone. I often think that I have to work harder, but I will continue to do my best.
I will do my best. ！！！！！！
I am like this, but I look forward to working with you again next year.
Please take a look at my works if you like!
