Express the customers feelings by writing brush,

And enrich their hearts by calligraphy

The origin of KUKU NO TSUKI "九來の月" stems from my birthday, September 9th. 來 signifies 'people gathering and supporting each other underneath a tree'.

KUKU NO TSUKI was named in the hope, that by using my calligraphy, I would and could support the customers' endeavors, even if just a little. I express their feelings using the brush and provide a special style of calligraphy that is memorable and enriches their hearts.
