    South Korean Illustrator Rudcef uses his art to connect with people & overcome social anxiety. He was majoring in statistics when the death of a family member caused him to reevaluate life & pursue a career in art. He has done many celebrity portraits, such as A$AP Yams & Rocky, Lana Del Rey, & Kendall Jenner.

HAIKU Art Review: Rudcef

Dark pigments align 
Sick artistic autopsy
Faces tear away 

   I draw for “compathy” - sharing my feelings via art to fill the absence of communication in my life. All humans appear different, but we have the same organs, so for me anatomy represents our genuine being.

ART: Tadanori Yokoo (横尾 忠則) - Groovy Graphics Master

Tadanori Yokoo (横尾 忠則)

  While I usually try to focus on contemporary Asian art it's always hep to pay tribute to some of the masters, the giants who have made waves so massive the ripples are still being felt today. 

   Tadanori Yokoo, born in Nishiwaki, Japan, in 1936, is one of Japan's most successful & influential graphic designers & artists. He began his career as a stage designer for avant garde theatre in Tokyo & was close friends with Ken Takakura.

Groovy graphic style
Limitless pop collages
Optical Orgasms

   Akira Kurosawa & writer Yukio Mishima are two of Yokoo's most formative influences.
