Yoshitomo Nara is an Amazing Japanese artist with a very strong cult following all around the world and boy it keeps on growing! his style is both simple but like very few artists today. he draws most of his inspiration from his own memories "I only draw what I know from experience"-YN melding together traditional Japanese culture, punk rock and rebellious youth, the loss of childhood innocence and feelings we all keep inside. Though many of his pieces seem and are very similar "Even if i try to draw something different, it always comes out this way"-YN The characters eyes grab you every time with different emotions laser beamed into your mind. it never fails you can look at his pieces over and over read his art books again and again, you'll start to think you are familiar with the sinister stares, you might even be reminded of a memory from your childhood, but after a look or two you'll swear they've moved, fallen off the comfy green hill, committed a crime, or sank farther into a puddle taking you along with them, but let em.
