'Fumio's world ①' A cartoon series for Kyoto Journal.




This is a new collaboration between myself and On-line news journal based in Kyoto - 'Kyoto Journal' http://kyotojournal.org/which presents thorougher insight from my country Japan. 

Here is the page link:
http://kyotojournal.org/the-journal/society/fumios-world/

My audience is mainly the English speakers who live in Asia so I chose a theme which talks about my adolescence in early 90's when I first arrived in England, and my experience of cultural encounters between Britain and Japan at that time. This will continue fortnightly, so wait for the next episode!

Angoulême sketches

Between 30th January and 4th February I was attending the International Comic Festival in Angoulême, France. I was doing the first signing for my book but found myself waiting for someone to buy it.So in meantime I did a lot of drawing.
