My Dream

Sei Saito is a Japanese-born artist, married to an American college professor, and after many years creating her works in Flagstaff, Arizona, is now living in Hawaii. She does large-scale acrylic paintings, which reflect vivid colors and patterns shaped by the places she has lived and by her life experiences. Her work draws deeply on her personal outlook, with her life and emotions strongly expressed in each piece. Painted not for an audience, but for herself, it is genuine artwork from the heart.

Sei describes this work with the following words:

“One day while I was living in AZ. I had a strange dream in front of my art studio built in the middle of nature. There was a giant Japanese Haniwa standing tall. Towering against the clear blue sky.”
