Ninja Mau Postcard Sticker Set, originally uploaded by MAUstudio.

This is so Kawaii, Ninja Mau reminds me of Ninji of Super Mario Bros 2, so its gotta be a winner in my book! The Sushi is so great, I really admire work with no outlines ironically enough. There's Ebi (prawn) Nigiri, Salmon Nigiri, and some Futomaki! Truly a feast for Ninja Mau, and my eyes :)

Windy, originally uploaded by FLIM291.

Done in acrylics on wooden panel, this reminds me of some classic compositions, with the artist's, Flim291's own spin. Sometimes hard to pull off, this looks fantastic!! The hair is truly cool, and it all seems very liquid, for such a bold style :) The eyes are perfect!!

red dot series, originally uploaded by ---stress---origami samurai!.

Here's a gorgeous vector I came across... the artist describes it as "Japanese inspired minimalistic illustration series" and I couldn't agree more! I can see inspirations of the Flag of Japan, the flow of Kimono fabric and Obi, Geisha's hair, water, etc etc. Such beautiful work!
