3×3 ANNUAL No.4 IS HERE!

I haven’t updated illustration section in a while, I know. It is not that I haven’t been working, it is just that a lot of the jobs I have been doing recently are not ready to be shown due to the contracts with my clients. So, plese stay tuned…I posted series of mural images to my top page. They were actually created about two years ago. The library where the mural is supposed to go up is still under construction.

Some jobs just takes a long time to mature like that. I will make a page with all the mural panels very soon.
