私は“山の遣い”ではないかと、時々思うことがある。

　山は優しい顔をみせたかと思うと、突然牙を剥いたように変貌し、自然の恐ろしさをむき出しにしてくる。危険な目にも度々あったが、その都度命拾いし、山は私の命を奪うことはなかった。

　山々が私を呼び、招き入れ、その帳を、その神秘の扉を、そっと私に開いてくれたのである。今や山と私は正に一心同体。

　山に取り憑かれた雄の画集を通して、私の山への畏敬の念と山に対する情熱と生き様を汲み取って鑑賞していただければ、著者の喜びは至上です。

 

 

A little about myself

I sometimes think I might be a messenger of mountains,

Mountains have various faces and the nature of mountains can
quickly change. They can look calm and gentle, and they can
show fierce looks all at once like wild animals baring their fangs.
I have had some dangerous encounters with mountains, Whenever
I ran into danger, I could narrowly escape and they obviously never
deprived me of my life,

Mountains call me, invite me to lift up their veils and open their
doors. Now mountains and I have become truly one.

It would be a great pleasure for me if you come to appreciate the
respect, the passion I have and the way of life for mountains
through my book of paintings.
