The 41st Shutai (Individual)Exhibition is held on September 1 - 16, 2005 at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum

This year 480 paintings were submitted to the jury, and 177 paintings by 165 authors have been selected for the show. From them 18 were named as "Fine-Work Artist", and I'm one of them. Thisis the second time I won the title. The first time was at the 39th Shutai Exhibition.

This time I have two paintings selected for the exhibition, namely "TheWinter Ocean" and "Innocence".Furthermore, at a meeting on August 31, 2005 I was elected (by secret voting) to the membership of the Shutai Fine-Art Association.
