These are great. But I can't tell from looking at the artist's site whether they're for sale (I can't read kanji yet) - anyone know? Are they in galleries / private collections?

The ones with the giraffe are awesome!
Don t only like the idea, but also the style of painting. I think it would be really interesting to have a talk with Shuichi Nakano about his intentions.

Amazing serie, reminds me some great old movies like the Attack of the 50 Foot Woman or The Incredible Shrinking Man . The ones with giraffes are my favs!

please let me know when (or if) you'll be selling copies. i doubt my budget would allow an original, but would love a copy of "Spring Garden", "Memory of Noon" and "Premonition of Storm".
