I made this book for the part of you that still wants to play.
The one who picks up a pencil, then thinks:
“But I’m not really creative.”
Bonjour, perfectionism.
You can sit this one out.
Japan has found its way into my words, my art, and the way I look at things.
In Kokoro, I bring together 35 Japanese words, poetry, Hattori Bunkai’s calligraphy, cyanotypes, and invitations to write and create.
心, kokoro. Heart, mind, spirit.
I love that they don’t have to live in separate rooms.
You can read a poem. Make a mark. Stay with a question. Turn the page when you feel like it.
A pencil is welcome.
So are your unfinished thoughts.
From shades of grey to your own true colours.

I’m putting together a creative trip inspired by the world behind this book.
I’m inviting sponsors and collaborators to help make it happen. A flight, a workshop, a place to stay, or someone you think I should meet.
