Terushige Matsumoto

Born unknown date •

Art is the realization of the inner light.

I am a Japanese artist. After graduating Kyoto University with an economics degree, I got a job in a governmental office. But it was so boring and I quit there to study an industry design at Chiba University. I discovered the interest in drawing figures there. So I changed my mind again and decided to go to The Art Students' League of NY to study fine art full time (1990~91). I chose this school because of a book entitled 'Natural way to draw' which was so wonderful and whose author used to be a teacher of this school. After two years' stay in NY I returned to Japan and keep painting. 1995~I started my career as a teacher in some classes of oil painting while painting by myself. 2002~03 I studied in Academie de la Grand Chaumiere in Paris,
