2024 Illustration Calendar PRESENT / Christmas Gift / New Year Gift

I like this sentence very much: "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift... that's why they call it present.", so all we can do is seize the moment.) Time keeps passing by, whether it is life or creation, we are all pushed forward by the busy days. It has been more than seven years since I came to Japan, and I have experienced so much more than 2,000 days, full of happiness, shock, setbacks, and surprises. I have been drawing graffiti books and making calendars intermittently for seven years! When I draw the graffiti book, I mostly record it in a purely relaxed mood without thinking too much. Sometimes I draw well, and sometimes I just doodle all over XD. I have accumulated more than 20 books so far! Usually, there is no opportunity to display these seemingly random and meaningless doodles, but if we did not insist on leaving some traces in every moment of life, perhaps there would be no works in the exhibition, and there would be no shortlisted works in the Bologna Illustrators Exhibition. This year, I specially selected 12 illustrations from these doodle books and made them into the 2024 calendar. I hope that these illustrations and texts depicting my different present times can make you feel like reading a picture book, and sometimes make you smile or feel calm, temporarily forgetting the worries in real life. It would be my greatest honor to interact with you through my work. I would like to express my deep gratitude and wish you a wonderful and safe 2024💖 🌕Almanac specifications🌞 ・Printed in Japan, limited to 40 copies in Taiwan, no more printing will be done when sold out ・12 thick cards with color printed illustrations, no binding, the date part below each painting can be cut out for decoration or framed into a painting ・Size: A4, 21x29.7cm ・Paper: 195kg thick high-grade fine art paper (has a rich texture and smooth, rough feel.
