MeAndYou Cards
今年ももう師走です。ついこの間1月で日本に居たような気がするのに、もはや2012年も年の瀬。青空を覗かせながらも風はぴゅうぴゅうと冷たいサンフランシスコですが、みなさんは風邪など引いていませんか?

今年も新たにグリーティングカードを作りました。テーマは"ME + YOU"。カードの裏面から続く二本の線は、それぞれふたりの人を表していて、どのように交わるかによってふたりの運命を表現しています。
真ん中で一度交わりまた離れてゆく"Thinking of You", だんだんと近くなり、最後までずっと一緒 "Now and Forever", 心地よい距離を保ちながら平行線に歩いてゆく"Best Companions", 全く違うところからやってきて突然一度交わる "It's a Small World"の4種類、全て手書きのオリジナル、サイン入りです。一年の締めくくり、または新年のご挨拶に、お友達や家族、大切な人にメッセージを送ってみてはいかがですか?

It's already December, the last month of 2012. I feel like I was just in Japan this January and started the year - time flies! Although it's sunny, the air is really cold in San Francisco lately... how's everyone?

I made a new series of greeting cards this year, with the theme of "ME+YOU." The two lines, continued from the back to the front of the card, represent two strangers and show how their fate intertwine in their lifetime. There are four kinds: the lines merge once, and part again - meaning "Thinking of You." The lines come close to each other, and stays until the end - "Now and Forever." The parallel lines continues from the beginning to the end with a comfortable distance to each other - "Best Companions." Two paths cross once, coming from totally different places - meaning "It's a Small World."

Each artworks are original, hand-drawn and signed by me. Every card is unique and different. Why not send a nice and warm messages to your friends, family and loved ones? All available on the online store!
