I MISS YOU
My mind is beginning to comprehend you are gone, so it directs my hands to trace memories of you.
My heart senses something else, a deep longing in the shape of you, to feel into it is to bring you back to me.
These paintings are somewhere in between my mind and my heart.

tokyobike is a small, independent bicycle company founded in 2002 in the quiet Tokyo suburb of Yanaka, Japan. Based on the concept of Tokyo Slow our bicycles are designed to explore the places we love and call home. With a tokyobike, it is as much about the journey as the destination.
