He has commented that growing up he didn't think of becoming an artist and rather he wanted to be novelist, poet, lyricist but I honestly think he accomplished it all; his little self should be extremely proud. His work is some many things in one, I can see a poem, a lyric and a novel through his art.

単純にシンプルですき。奈良さんの成功から派生した日本のイラストレーター、現代アーティストはたくさんいるけれど、どれも理屈臭くて、理屈を理屈で埋めるようにゴテゴテして…
やはりこの方はパイオニア的な存在なんだろうなと思う。

life is the experience of living, death defines how long that experience lasts

The point of life is to experience it, in games the lives are so you can achieve the objective of the game, the game then becomes life and the lives define how long you play the game, in such a sense life is just what we call the experience of living and death defines how long that experience lasts haha BOOM!! meaning of life and death yo
