I change the feather's color to red and used the green form a strong contrast.



I keep here empty, because Spring make people hope you do not what will happen.Spring to me means hope.

I drew a boy's shadow and design the a lot of fallen leaves, piece by piece of falling, Like people degenerate, everyone has one part not smooth in the life.





When i heard winter i will thinking of snow and snowman first. I really fear cold i always wear clothes much. And i feeling lonely in the winter.

So i decided draw a person sitting in the snow alone. Like freaking out, like when people in the trouble.




When i finish four seasons i do not wanna continue drew about season, i wanna make my four seasons special. So i want did a new series. Every time when i drawing my head will coming out a lot of ideas.


Who says only woman can make up can call the beautiful. I decided to draw the boy who want to become to be a girl. Maybe have a lot of people can not understood why they will like this, but i can they are not different with us.
I combine the butterfly and help the boy to make up. Means they can free fly like butterfly also.

Choose a Famous Artist and study their artwork.
Yayoi Kusama


Yayoi Kusama (born March 22, 1929) is a Japanese artist and writer. Throughout her career she has worked in a wide variety of media, including painting, collage, sculpture, performance art and environmental installations, most of which exhibit her thematic interest in psychedelic colors, repetition and pattern. A precursor of the pop art, minimalist and feminist art movements, Kusama influenced contemporaries such as Andy Warhol and Claes Oldenburg.

Kusama's work is based in conceptual art and shows some attributes of feminism, minimalism, surrealism, Art Brut, pop art, and abstract expressionism, and is infused with autobiographical, psychological, and sexual content. Kusama is also a published novelist and poet, and has created notable work in film and fashion design. 

She is a "obsessive artist‘. As you can see from her work, her attempt rendered is an autobiographical, in-depth psychological, sexual orientation content; creative techniques she used painting, soft sculpture, action art and installation art.

Characteristics of her works.
Her creation in the early development of its own characteristics, make good use of contrasting polka dot high saturation plus mirrors, a large number of coated surface of various objects, such as walls, floors, canvas, home appear items (and naked Assistant). She said that these visual characteristics from her hallucinations, he thinks these point formed a infinite Infinity nets, on behalf of her life.



Yayoi Kusama’s Artwork



Audi 100 Anniversary show 
"Lemonade" 2000


"flowers"
The visual fruit of her mind's unrest is her prolific collection of work. Yayoi Kusama’s paintings and sculpture have a way of creating an immersible sensory experience for the viewer.

Her work id projection of her own concurring mental illness onto the viewer, so that we can truly see what she sees. Her work seeks out and identifies the of the individual  namely, lack of control. Perhaps the same lack of control Kusama experiences when her visions overcome her.




"Lingering Dreams" 1949
First word - "surreal". It felt like this painting invited me into the magnificent and unknown world of Kusama’s mind. Creepy floral "creatures" do not frighten me.


"Flame" 1992



Design For Louis Vuitton


"All about my love, and i long to Eat Dream of the Night" 2009



Final Typography



Design to combine the designer element with the artist work.
