When you first see some of Japanese illustrator TAKOLEGS' work, you may wonder if your screen settings are too dark. The artist has developed a style in which characters are often enveloped in dark tones, so it can sometimes take a bit of adjustment, but this is also part of the art's charm. All it takes is a moment of attention to realize that the illustrations are full of gorgeous decorative details. TAKOLEGS is often inspired by traditional Japanese motifs, and has an incredible sense for composition.
