During her sixth year of elementary school, ever since she saw a photo of European paintings in an English textbook my parents bought, becoming a painter was Noriko Miyamoto’s secret dream.During her first year of middle school, she learned oil painting technique at the studio of a Nitten painter Harada Gachou. But a painter can’t afford to live or raise a family on art alone, so she entered the world of apparel to sell designs.After that she would like to study once again, learning philosophy at a university while managing a private cramming school course.
She has decided, once again, to pursue her dream of painting having encountered Kant and Sartre, whose philosophies hold “possibility“ as a theme of life.
小学6年の時に、両親が購入した英語教材テキストでヨーロッパ絵画の写真を見て、将来画家になりたいと密かに思うようになる。
中学校1年生になると、日展画家(原田 雅兆)のアトリエで油絵の描き方を学ぶ。しかし、画家では生活が出来ないとの家族の反対から、アパレルの世界でデザイン画を描き、販売を行う。その後、再度勉強をしたいと思い、学習塾を経営しながら大学で哲学を学ぶ。
カント、サルトル哲学から生涯のテーマとなる「可能性」と出逢い、再度絵描きへの夢を追い求め現在に至る。
