Yuta Onoda

A friend recently lent me my first graphic novel: Jimmy Corrigan, the Smartest Kid on Earth. To be honest, I’m having trouble getting into it (have you read it? should I push through it?) but, it’s opened me up to discovering more artists who do that style of illustration. Yuta Onoda is a Japanese artist based in Canada who is great producing very colorful, narrative images.

Yuta is going to be a part of Gallery 1988′s fourth Crazy 4 Cult show next month. Can’t wait to see what he comes up with. For more imagery goodness, visit his portfolio and blog. Thunder Chunky also has an interview with him that’s worth a read.
