My name is Asae Chihara.
I am a painter from Tokyo, Japan.
My favourite objective is to paint roses in rose gardens.
I have been painting in Kew Garden and in Cambridge while I am staying in England for two months.
I am very happy to be able to exhibit at the Kaetsu Centre and looking forward to meeting you at the exhibition.
