Heisuke Kitazawa

Heisuke Kitazawa mostly does illustrations. Mostly CD covers and book illustrations.

He uses simple shapes with not a lot of detail, but there is still a lot going on around everything.

I like this because there is not a lot of detail in his shapes and figures. I'm not a fan of doing detail myself and its nice to see someone fell like he has to make every single petal on every flower or every line in a piece of wood or even put a face on a person.

I found Kitazawa on our field trip to the MOCA the other day. We were wondering around looking for food and got to this little plaza and at the entrance there was a little sign with a bunch of his work asking the reading to go on a search for each piece around the plaza. I thought it was pretty neat and would like to go back one day and try to find them.

Ken Sugimori

This is Ken Sigimori

Hes a video game designer, illustrator, manga artist and director.

He is mostly know for his work on the Pokemon series.

He has done some of the original artwork for Pokemon games and movies and show.

He also did some of the Pokemon cards.

He has worked on other things but his biggest is Pokemon.

I really loved the games and the shows growing up and its nice to know about one of the people behind the creation of it. His characters and creatures are adorable and interesting looking. Nothing ever looks too scary and I like that.
