Life, In Abundance: Naomi Okubo

It’s so easy to forget how good we have it.  We get so caught up in what isn’t going right in our lives or what is challenging us that we neglect to remember how very full of wonder and sparkle life is.  The work of Japanese artist Naomi Okubo is so full of layered jubilant pattern that you can’t help but remember your lost joie de vivre.

I love that it feels like you’ve walked into the middle of some kind of fabulous party, completely with confetti and streamers.  The flat layering of texture and pattern give her paintings a collage like feeling to them, snaps of life pieced together to create irresistibly charming work.
