Found Japanese art






Kosuke Ikeda is his name and graphic art is his game. These are my five favourites. I originally ran across these beautiful pieces of art in July when a co-worker was looking at some art galleries online. It was the tree drawing that caught my eye as I was walking by Nathan's computer, so I asked him to email me the link.

When I got home later that day I started to search for the artist's website. If you visit the link you'll notice that it's all in Japanese. I took a look around and found some more pieces that I downloaded and then I emailed the artist asking him where I can purchase prints of his fine artwork.

It turns out he has a distributor in Portland, Oregon, justbedesign.com, aka Compound Gallery. When I looked at their website I couldn't find Kosuke's name or any of his art.

Then I got distracted by my life and summer and the all the other stuff. But this has been in the back of my mind since July, I think I need to do something about it. So I guess I'll send an email to Compound Gallery asking if there's any prints and how much I can get them for. I'll keep you posted.
