Hi, I'm Kaori

I’m a Japanese–Australian mixed media artist, and through my contemporary paintings I weave together cultural heritage, nature, and colour. My work is deeply personal, yet it’s created with you in mind — to spark dreaming, reflection, and reconnection with your inner spark.

I believe creativity has the power to transform. When I paint, I’m opening a window into my inner world and inviting you to step inside — into a space of beauty, wonder, and quiet reflection. Each piece is made with the intention of bringing inspiration into everyday life, like a gentle spell that awakens something hidden within.

My passion is not only to create art that enchants, but also to empower — to remind you of your own magic, your courage, and the beauty of your journey.

Still, it wasn’t until I returned to my roots — rekindling my passion for art — that I felt truly alive. From the disciplined strokes of traditional Sumi-e (Japanese ink painting) to the expressive freedom of oil and mixed media, my artistic journey continues to mirror the many layers of my soul.
