パン だ！！　（C’est un Pain – Da!!）

The first solo exhibition was held in Kobe in 2000. In 2005/8, I returned to Japan from France after studying art for about 5 years. While in France, he came across one edition of a polychrome copperplate print. In 2009/4, he opened Atelier Parkour in Joto-ku, Osaka-shi. Constructed the foundation for the original technique “semi-three-dimensional color painting.” Name it “Yoshikazu drawing method.” 2014 Semi-three-dimensional color painting series development started. “Yoshika Zoo Series” A wide range of series will follow in 2015, such as the “Table Series.” Even now, they continue to present their works both domestically and internationally. ▶ ︎ Click here for details: https://yoshikazoo.com I’ve been interested in painting since I was a child, and I was always making things and cooking. I think I’m still the same even now, it’s just that my curiosity has grown even bigger.
I started to travel during my late teens as a backpacker, and visited about 30 countries. This of course stimulated me a lot and taught me a great deal. I think those days enriched my heart and soul, which is still a great help to my creativity. Initially I drew black and white miniature paintings. When I encountered multi-colored copper intaglio in 2002 during my stay in Paris, I thought it suited my style, so I started printmaking using miniature painting techniques.
I also saw tile mosaic art during my travels and sensed that I could develop that style of art into something of my own. So for a while I started to produce tile mosaic art. I think one of the secrets to becoming an artist is to see a lot of things and to learn from them. I insist on having my own view of the world and proudly produce unique artwork that you won’t find anywhere else. Believing that my effort will somehow stimulate the world and lead to the further evolution of the art industry, I continue to be passionate in my research and production. By combining things that I learned in the past, I have developed my miniature painting skills into something that allows me to produce brighter and bigger artwork. I also created my own tools, which has completed the Yoshikazu 3D Painting Technique. I currently present my art in galleries and art festivals both in Japan and overseas, while producing other custom artwork for a growing number of astute clients.
