Re: Toshio Saeki Wow, very interesting work! I'd be interested in buying the book myself to take a gander at the rest of it!

Re: Toshio Saeki ^^ That looks like a great book!  I'd never heard of Toshio Saeki before - thanks for the introduction . . . . I'm a big fan of Suehiro Maruo and Atsushi Kaneko (who also have a penchant for weird stuff)

Re: Toshio Saeki You're more than welcome. I first got into his work a few years ago when I first saw this poster in Shinjuku:  Needless to say it was pretty much love at first sight  Here are some of his more refined works: http://designcollector.net/toshio-saeki/I've only found a few Japanese sketch book editions but browsing I've just realized he's also published some books in the US: http://www.akatako.net/lib/toshio-saeki ... bliographyhttp://www.lastgasp.com/pre/onikage/I can't but recommend guys, especially if you're into the work of artists like Maruo

Re: Toshio Saeki I've got a book of his early works (french edition I think, I'll have to check). This is the first time I see some with colours. Pretty nice !

Re: Toshio Saeki I just ordered on amazon:
Onikage: The Art of Toshio Saeki
I've had a look on google images and his art is exactly the kind of stuff I love . . . thanks again for the heads up!
I'm surprised I hadn't heard of him before . . .

Re: Toshio Saeki Thanks for sharing this. These books are definitely something I would love to have. I am sure it is bizarre but I like Ukiyo-e art. No cash right now, but it is most certainly going on my wish list.
