Shintaro Ohata is a Japanese artist who has the knack of cleverly combining sculpture and canvas, creating unique effects. Ohata draws his inspiration from movies and everyday life and immerses the viewer in his 2D/3D work of art. His manipulation of color and light is the secret to his successful combination of these elements. These are truly creative pieces that would look lovely in an exhibition, and I hope some that amazing effect will go out to you, as well.
You can find more of his beautiful art on his website.
