Hello!
My name is Mika Kitamura.
I live in a city near Los Angeles California USA with my family.

 

I am a 'CRAZY' dog lover :D

My whole family, too!

When my first son was 1-2 years old.
He loved "Thomas the tank engine" sooooo much.
And he asked me to draw those tank engines everyday.

At first, my drawings were TERRIBLE.
But still, my son was so pleased. (Thank you, baby!!)
After trying it hard for him day after day,

I found myself pretty awesome  :)

And I loved drawing itself so much, too.

Eventually, I looked for a new model, 

not the same old tank engines.

 

And... I found it.
It was  Drill.

Our beloved French Bulldog.

His funny face gave me a tons of inspiration.

Since then, I have been became addicted to it ,

and enjoyed it so much.

Almost all my artwork became about Drill.
I love to put him in so many colors and take him lots of situations and places in the world.

​

Unfortunately, Drill crossed the rainbow bridge in 2014

at age 12.
But after him, luckily we met Fred (English Bulldog),

Vega (French Bulldog) and Rocket (Mix).

They are also the funniest dogs in the world,

so I can keep expanding my adventure of coloful doggie world

with them.

I love my family.
I love my dogs.
I love this beautiful world.

My art would never exist without them.

 

Welcome to my world of DRIART.

I hope you enjoy it, too.

 

Thank you so much.

 

LOVE and HUGS...
