lives in nature
watches the universe
becomes wind, rain or lightning
and watches over all creations
dragon guides us to complete our lives
connects us
like the earth and the sky
like nurturing nature
dragon eats fragments of dreams
but never swallows earnest dreams
dragon exhales dreams
those dreams will come true
each one of us has a dragon inside
and it guides us and watches over us
That is how I feel about dragon and why I keep painting dragon.

Dragon Artist HIRONO
Hirono was born in Chiba Prefecture in 1964, the year of the dragon. After graduating from university, he worked at a human resource development company. At the age of 42, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer and underwent extensive surgery and successfully had it all removed.
Realizing the simple fact that someday, he will die – Hirono began to reflect on his lifestyle. One day he noticed his son having fun drawing, which inspired him to start drawing as well. While enjoying drawing portraits, caricatures, and dragon paintings, he found his mission. In 2013, he decided to pursue his love of painting and quit his long standing work place.
