Reiko Kimura is mother of three children. She has a wide range of hobbies,
which includes visiting Museums and galleries, Japanese calligraphy, photography,
and yoga. She started her career in Fine Art after graduating from Art College,
but family commitments rapidly took over. Now after a long absence from
the art scene, she has returned to her art again and has begun re-building
her career. It is still hard for her to devote as much time she would like
into her creative activities, but she focuses her energies with passion
to make use of what little time she does have. Her main challenge is how
to make knitting that matches up to her aspirations as an artist.
