ive always enjoyed yoshitomo nara's artwork.
the first time i picked up a copy was about 3 years ago
in a japanese book store in sf
i was intrigued then

half a year later at my lowest i was again drawn to his art
his characters gave me a voice,
they spoke on my behalf about happiness and sadness,
frustrations and annoyances, hope and disappointment, anger and passion
all of which i could never successfully acknowledge or express.

nara's 2006 calender is still hanging on my wall.
