Yasunari Ikenaga's paintings have every subtle thing I like in a painting. It has flat colors, unique patterns, pretty subjects, and relaxed but interesting poses. Like Takato Yamamoto, mentioned in my earlier awareness post, Ikenaga's paintings are also influenced by the nihonga style and it usually shows beautiful women in a rather dreamy mood. It definitely shows seduction but in a manner that is artistic and pleasing and not necessarily offensive. From viewing his paintings, I wish to take away Ikenaga's use of color and outline into my own drawings and paintings.
