At the first this time, I introduce "和"
This character is one of the words that I value most. And this character becomes a logo of my art studio.
And this character means harmony, unity, peace, come to an understanding, the sum.

In addition, "輪 [wa]" of a reading of same as "和" means circle, ring, link, connection.

I feel that "harmony" is one of the things which people in the world lose.
Thought of "All of us are piece of peace. I will begin the connection with Japan." is put in a name of my art studio.



For more information about a type of a character and a type of a reading, I introduce it later.
Please enjoy that ''watching'' and ''feeling'' this time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are piece of peace.

Enjoy japanese characters !!

Thank you for coming.

This is Jun Ando.
