    Eien Kuronashi: My Japan Sketchbook edited p5!

    Hello people, that's my first post here.
    I choose to show you, my travel book from Japan.
    It's a very special country, and I really enjoy to there soon.
    Sorry for my bad english.

    So the following draws are two differents "species", some were made there, on an old school book of mine, so there are lines on. And some are realised after come back, with watercolor like true illustrations (because in Japan, you want to draw everything you see, every meters, so that's impossible, during the 3 weeks of the trip, we take about 7000 photos!)

    Now, the work:

    Thanks for sharing... I was looking out for more sketches... well I will visit your blog site to look at them all. For your information, I have already enjoyed those you posted. Looking good and I am also wishing to go to Japan and sketch too.

    These are fantastic! I went to Japan last November and could barely sit still for 2 seconds to draw (much as I wanted to) let alone produce such beautiful sketches.
    素晴らしい。もっとおねがいします!

    Magnifique! I love the last urban piece... Reminds me so much of my 2 week Tokyo trip. Wish I had used a travel sketchbook like you. All the impressions I got, are saved on my braindrive. No photos, nada...

    Hope you'll show us some more!

    These are very fresh and beautiful. I also like that little red circle stamp you have! Wish I had one!
