Tokyo based illustrator Makoto Maruyama worked in the design industry for years before she quit her job, traveled around the world and started drawing. Her beautiful illustrations show us of al kinds of magical places where really everyting can happen (look at the cat and elephant friends.. so adorable!). I love her playful drawing style and all the rich colors that she uses in her work. They have a very friendly character that makes me want to spend some time in her beautifully illustrated worlds.
You can find a beautiful selection of Makoto Maruyama’s art prints available at Toi Gallery.
Oh my gosh! You know that feeling when you’re sleepy and someone reads you a book with a gentle calm voice? Or they play with your hair!? Thats kinda weird but that’s how I feel when looking at these images. They are so soothing. And that soft texture, wow! They are ah-maz-ing!
I agree 🙂
