Stumbling On Excellence

Ok, so there's a Japanese dude thats an up and coming artist that has really caught my and my wife's eye. I wish him the best of luck, because I feel his artwork is very special. I'm considering employing him to do some more pieces for the Izakaya I want to open when I finish my current gig. My man was cool enough to do some drawings of me and my family, but thats not what he normally does. His plans are not to become "that guy at the fair that does caricatures". That's what makes these pieces so special to us. Here's a pic of what he's done on sheets of plywood for us.























There's meanings in the Kanjii and meanings of the red suns in the pictures that I can't get into for now, but if you are really curious, I can divulge a little.
