YOUCHAN "TURQUOISE"

So cute! Not just.

The picture is supposed to be two-dimensional, but it feels strangely three-dimensional.

-- Motoko Arai (novelist)

She is active in SF, horror, fantasy novel books and magazine illustrations and illustrations,

Since 2006, she has regularly held solo exhibitions every two years and is gaining popularity at YOUCHAN.

Full of new originals and book illustrations!

The first art book full of YOUCHAN's unique sense of wonder! !

If it was the genius illustrator Hiroshi Manabe who widely supported the visual image of the first generation of Japanese science fiction, his role in the 21st century

It is no exaggeration to say that YOUCHAN inherited it.

She became a representative of science fiction art of the new century.

--Takayuki Tatsumi (Professor, Faculty of Letters, Keio University / Science fiction critic)
