Product Description My Art Notes is a reflective art essay collection by illustrator Osamu Harada, the creator of OSAMU GOODS. First known for capturing the hearts of young fans in 1980s Japan, Harada also spent a lifetime exploring the beauty of art across eras and cultures. In this volume, he records the works, artists, colors, and unexpected discoveries that moved him most deeply. From the blue of Spanish tiles found on a Paris street to thoughts on Sotatsu's silver dew, old illustrators' studios, folk art, design, and picture books, these notes offer a personal and elegant journey through Harada's world of beauty. Written with warmth and quiet curiosity, the book reflects years of looking at art as naturally as watching clouds drift across a blue sky. This edition comes in a custom slipcase and features design by Kazunari Hattori and Tomoko Yamashita, making it a lovely choice for readers interested in illustration, Japanese art, and beautifully produced books.
