Here at Chulo we wanted to showcase the creatives with a Q&A to dive a little deeper into the Artists inner workings - today we spotlight newest member, KENTARO YOSHIDA.

Tell us a bit about what keeps your creative juices flowing, do you search for inspiration or does it come naturally?

I do observations and keep collecting photos of what I like or things that catch my eyes in my dairy life. I often mix these references with my memory and experience. 

What's been your favourite project to date and why?

My recent favourite project was collaboration with Tooheys New last year. As a beer lover, it was an honour to work with national beer brand like Toohey New.

Tell us a bit about your process, do you start off searching for reference and sketching?

Depends on the project, but I do take some time for researching topics & motifs if they are given. Otherwise always stuff starts from super rough sketches on paper.

What made you want to pursue a career in the arts and do you have any tips for up and coming artist looking to do the same.

I simply love drawing since I was a kid so I would like to keep on going what I love to do for now.

I don’t have much to say to young artists but hope they keep drawing / making stuff everyday as that’s how I have made myself as full time artist.
