Naomi Ito

I haven’t painted in a few weeks because it seems that lately so many other tasks have taken precedence (and for good reason).  However, that has resulted in a lot of pent up inspiration and really needs a creative outlet.  After spending time over at Naomi Ito’s website, I’m convinced that I need to find time (even if it’s just for 1/2 an hour) and pick up the paint brush!  Naomi is an artist and a textile designer (makes really cute buttons too!) that has worked in such cities as Paris, Osaka, and Tokyo.  Checkout some of her work…it’s just beautiful! Can you guess why I love it so much?

If interested in purchasing some of her work or her latest fabric collection, Nani Iro, it’s available for sale on Etsy and Super Buzzy (a Japanese fabric and craft supply shop).  Ok, it’s now time to think about what I can make with this fabric…
