Dennis Mukai: Blondie Color Drawing on Rag Paper THIS IN AN ORIGINAL ARTWORK. Beutifully framed. Size: 36x28 Perfect condition. Dennis Mukai's art depicts the rarefied world of high fashion and feminine beauty with an original sense of style. His palette and gestural brushstrokes evoke the fluid elegance of Oriental ink painting. Mukai was born in Hiroshima , Japan and was influenced by Japan 's master printmakers such as Utamaro, Hiroshige, and Hokusai. Not only did he appreciate their asymmetrical use of space, he adopted their fascination for the beauty of women. Mukai went on to study art at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena , California where his talent was encouraged by artist Patrick Nagel. Nagel influenced his student's developing precision and concern for detail. Mukai applied those lessons while his expressive style evolved in its own unique direction, one that embraced a looser, less graphic appearance than that of his mentor. In limited edition serigraphs, Mukai demonstrates this unparalled vision.
