The 3rd day of FB Art challenge

日本語は下
When I was in a junior high,I longed to became an illustrator. 
I wanted to see my drawings on fashion magazies, cosmetic packages, etc. 
I especially loved package of Kanebo paper powder series. 
I became grown up and then I became an illustrator. 
I done many magazines, create many characters for animated TV CM, 
then finaly the project that Kanebo paper powder series. 
Today's posts are illustrations that I made my dream of junior high's. (total 15 various) 
I remember when I finished the project I felt to move the next step of my life.
私は中学生のときにイラストレーターに憧れてて、
ファッション雑誌とかカネボウ化粧品のあぶらとりがみ、紙おしろいのイラストが好きでした。
(当時は葉祥明さんだった)で、いろんな雑誌のイラストやったりCMのアニメキャラやったりして、
とうとう中学の時のあこがれだったカネボウのあぶらとりがみ紙おしろいの仕事もやった。
で、なんかもう商業アートはいいやって正直この時に思ったの覚えてる。

The 2nd day of FB Art challenge. 

The 2nd day of FB Art challenge. 日本語は下
After I graduated from Art university, 
I didn't have anything but doing everyday for a while B/W drawing 
with a pen and ink. 
Is it a kind of Manga? I have no idea. 
OH! These darawings were used to the catalog of 
The First Tokyo International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival. 
I totaly forgot that incident.



大学卒業後しばらく白黒のペン画を描いてた。
漫画の一種と言えるのかな。
確か第一回東京国際レズビアン&ゲイ映画祭のパンフレットに使われたんだった!
すっかり忘れてた。

FaceBook art challenge day1

Day 1 for FB Art challenge. 日本語は下
Thank you for nominating me, Ivan Velez Jr. .
I pick my artworks from old days before I started “Peekaboo”
I have posted many pics of Peekaboo-art already so I thought it is a nice opportunity to show my other works.
These 3 pics are stage art for a fringe music theater and a cosmetic company, and an ad in Japan. 
I loved into painting on big clothes and people asked me to do for theater plays and commercial advertisement. 
Those are like 12 x 25 feet.
顔出しクンの作品はすでにいくつか投稿しているので、今回は顔出しクン以前の作品を出す事にしました。
これらは大きな布の絵で、コンサートや広告の仕事で描きました。

楽しかったな。
