About Me

Hi, everyone!

I'm a cartoonist and I've been drawing many rock musicians for over 25 years.
Most of all my work were from the 80's rock music, and J-rock(X-Japan, Luna Sea etc.) and many more.

When I was in junior high school, watching the monkees on TV got me into Rock music.
Then I used to listen the radio I Liked all of the Beatles' songs very much, and that's how I begun to draw of them.

Anyway, I'd like to keep drawing and make people who loves rock happy! You can see more work, Please click my drawings and enjoy them!
