Spellbinding world of Yumiko Kayukawa
Pay a visit to the spell-binding world of Yumiko Kayukawa.

From her artist bio: "After graduating from Art school, she continued to paint, but struggled with truly expressing herself in her art. Fortunately, this frustration took a dramatic turn during a visit to Seattle where Yumi painted a picture at the request of an American friend. In comic-book style, two girls sit entwined atop a mushroom, Japanese symbols and American pop art styles melding together in lively color and bold lines. Yumi now realized her art persona — sagacious Japanese tradition in synergy with the jubilant irreverence of American pop culture." (Link snagged from Eye of the Goof.)
