Happy New Year 2014!

Happy New Year, 2014! I paid a visit to TAMON-In near my house on the New Year's day with my family. The atmosphere was so solemn and I felt so blessed. Last year, I met many wonderful people through Illustration work, howver I had been very busy dealing with duties not related to Art field at the same time. I will focus on more illustration job in 2014!

I went to TOCCA,Aoyama to buy a bunch of "the TOWELS" for Christmas gifts for my friends. They were all displayed beautifully.... All required exams has done this week and I do not care the result at this moment. I am simply happy to be able to use day-offs for creativity!

Escaping from studying for an exam coming next week, I visited shrine near my home. Autumn leaves were at their peak and it was amazing! I consulted a written oracle and it said that I would have the best of luck!!

My illustrations were a part of this beautiful illustration book directed by Ana Benaroya, published by Thomes and Hudson,U.K. Collaborative works with Keiko Tokushima look so gorgeous!! We worked together undaunted by long distance and time differences between New York and TOkyo. Thank you so much, Ana!!!

Here is another products I designed for Tocca Onward! They are available on ONWARD CROSSET, TOCCA now! Hope you like them-!!!

Hello, finally this long term project was done! The pouches I designed for TOCCA onward are available in the store in Aoyama, Tokyo and on the web now. The shoes and dress designed ones are already no stocks on the web. TOCCA is a leading fashion brand in Japan and started from New York. I am very honored to work with them as an illustrator! Thanks to Mr.Mitsui for the great project. If you are interested in the pouches, you can buy them from here.
