MASANORI USHIKI

Japan

"I spend roughly 30 minutes to an hour each day sketching impromptu an anime character or superhero that inspired me as a kid."

Masanori Ushiki is an illustrator and visual artist, having studied at Masashino Art University drawing school, he is now based in Tokyo, Japan.

His unique style is inspired by the delicate linework of traditional wood block prints blended with modern manga, animation, tokusatsu and pop culture.
