AKIKO MAEGAWA NOTE




week4 JUNE 2024


ビーズ刺繍の作品でグループ展に参加するので、そればかりやってます。部署異動して日が浅いので会社の仕事はまだ慣れないことが多くてしんどいです。この先どうしたらいいのかなあとよく考えてます。




Mon.17 JUNE 2024

I usually take Wednesdays off, but I had a meeting on Wednesday, so I took a sudden day off today.

I went to the OPA gallery, Gallery House MAYA in Omotesando, and PAGIC Gallery in Hatsudai.

I received DMs and fans for the exhibition I will be participating in at OPA.

On the way home, I dropped by the book cafe Fuzukue where I could read books quietly. I love that place.



Tue.18 JUNE 2024

It was a heavy rainy day. I am lucky to work from home. In the morning, I organized around my desk. I should keep it cleaner. For dinner, I made stuffed peppers and mushrooms with meat. I also used mushroom stems. It was delicious. My daughter loves it.

Wed.19 JUNE 2024

I went to my office since I had a meeting at 11 am. I got there at 10 am. There were a few people. The meeting finished at 12:45 am. It was long. After that, I went to Wada GAROU to see the exhibition 22nd century jedai. It was good. I think he drew also a rough sketch. It was like a design. The blush touch was beautiful.


Thu.20 JUNE 2024

I got an email from Mr. Nakao, the Director of the design office of Econosis in Kyoto. He asked me about the park Hyatt Kyoto’s restaurant menu illustration that I had drawn before. I searched for them and sent it.


Fri.21 JUNE 2024

It was a heavy rainy day again. Though the weather forecast said the rainy season has not yet begun. I considered doing the animation background image using Figjam, it is a very useful app. I will study how to use Figma more.


Sat.22 JUNE 2024

I did beading more and more. I announced that I would participate in the “OPA Summer Festival” on social media. I went to the library to return books and bought a magazine about handmade sewing at the bookstore. I wanted the real size pattern in it.

Sun.23 JUNE 2024

I spent all day relaxing at home. I did well working on the bead embroidery of the cactus in the flowerpot design. It is almost done. However, I am struggling with the design of the flowerpot section.
