Yoshitomo Nara...

Yoshitomo Nara is a miraculous artist. He liberates me tremendously. He holds a gentle warmth within his work but also magnifies a bellowing aggression discordantly.  I find myself narcissistic to his characters. They are innocently and emotionally translucent, haunting with smug eyes and unclear intentions. Frightfully endearing. 

My desire is to create canvases in a similar manner.

quite a mood setter...
