1. Fascinated by the artwork Kazuko Nomoto creates. Simple, colorful, whimsical and filled with the organic movement of ink. 


     Nomoco was born in Japan and currently lives in London. She graduated from Osaka University of Arts, Japan, majoring in Graphic Design, subsequently graduating from London College of Communication, UK, with a BA in Graphic Design / Illustration, and Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design, UK, with an MA in Communication Design, majoring in Illustration. 
    She has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions in London, Milan, Tokyo, Singapore and New York. Nature and the French horn are her inspiration, and she enjoys playing with ink and its organic movement. She also produces work under her full name Kazuko Nomoto.

    The Heart That Felt Is Light



    Another great Japanese artist - Fumi Mini Nakamura! Her art project is called “miniminiaturemouse”. She is from the small town of Shimizu, Shizuoka, Japan. She immigrated to the U.S. with her family when she was twelve with her mother and brother. Grad of San Jose State University. Freelancing as an illustrator and designer in NYC.  I love her stuff…
