Hello❕✨
From artists all over Japan
This is the "#fromartist" management office where you can find your favorite works 😊
This time, we will feature the work of artist Yukari Blair.
[Yukari Blair Profile]
He paints with the sensibilities he has discovered through travels to approximately 20 countries overseas. Through his travels and encounters with people from various countries, he realized that "everyone is already wonderful, unique, and precious just as they are," and this experience, which filled every cell in his body with joy, convinced him that this was the truth. Wanting to convey this to many people, he decided to express himself as he is and paint pictures. He began working as an artist. Since starting his career, he has exhibited not only in Japan but also in France, Italy, Spain, Luxembourg, New York, and other countries. He exhibits both domestically and internationally, including holding annual contracts with overseas galleries.
I would be happy if my works, which are drawn freely and according to my sensibilities, can serve as an opportunity for people to remember that ``you are the only precious person in the world.''

[Title] Cat and Manhole
[Year of production] 2025
[Artwork orientation and size] Portrait 22cm x 15.3cm
[Framed] Yes
Description of the work:
I came across a stray cat in a back alley on an island full of cats.
The sight of it trotting over and standing on top of the manhole was as if inviting me into a mysterious world.
This work captures such a fleeting encounter on a small canvas with a fantastical touch.
Because of its small size, it can be displayed in a small space and can be easily incorporated anywhere.
Feel the continuation of your own story through this cat. Recommended for those who want to add a touch of fantasy to their daily lives.
*The listed size is the frame size. (The artwork itself is postcard size.)
There may be slight differences in color between the image and the actual product.
The acrylic panel was removed and the photo was taken.
Depending on the availability of frames, the frame may differ from the image.

[Year of production] 2022
[Artwork orientation and size] Landscape 14.5cm x 19.5cm
[Framed] Yes
Description of the work:
I have drawn the inspiration and color images that came to me on this day. I hope that you will relax, clear your mind, and gaze upon the image. Then, I hope that you will feel the vision that arises within you.

[Work title] FLOW
[Year of production] 2024
[Artwork orientation and size] Portrait 19.5cm x 14.5cm
[Framed] Yes
Description of the work:
I created this piece one day when a strong image of pink and purple colors popped into my head and wouldn't leave it, and then I had an image of things going smoothly.
If you are somehow intrigued by the colors and expressions of this piece, why not try displaying it in a special space of yours and bring a splash of color into your everyday life?
Since it is a small piece, you can enjoy displaying it in a small space such as on a desk or shelf.

[Work title] Relaxed cat
[Year of production] 2024
[Artwork orientation and size] Landscape 14.5cm x 19.5cm
[Framed] Yes
Description of the work:
This is a piece that was drawn roughly and freely as I pleased.
A message from a relaxing cat: "There's no need to be so tense. Let's relax ♪."
This is a small piece of art, with the original postcard-sized artwork framed, so it doesn't take up much space and can be displayed on a desk, shelf, or anywhere else you have space.

[Work name] Pale memory 004 Miyazaki
[Year of production] 2024
[Artwork orientation and size] Landscape 14.5cm x 19.5cm
[Framed] Yes
Description of the work:
I recently visited Miyazaki for the first time in decades.
I saw a lot of surfers enjoying surfing in the ocean off Miyazaki, and it brought back fond memories of my own little time spent surfing in my twenties, so I felt a sense of nostalgia when I painted this beautiful piece of Miyazaki sea.The piece is small, about the size of a postcard, so it doesn't take up much space and can be displayed on a desk, shelf, or anywhere else you have a small space.
