This is the first collection of shichigoro-shingo (shichigoro756 on DeviantArt) digital paintings, encompassing both his personal and commercial works

shichigoro-shingo, an emerging young artist based in Tokyo, has already been gaining a reputation worldwide for his illustration work.

In 2015, he attracted attention for eye-catching contributions to a TV commercial for Tokyo Mode Gakuen, a design school in Japan, and also held a solo exhibition in Russia. Other recent work includes cover art for CLARKESWORLD MAGAZINE (nominated for the Chesley Award 2016 for Best Cover Illustration) and a brand new Sci-Fi short story collection by Caroline M. Yoachim (Fairwood Press) in the U.S.

Characteristic of his paintings are distinctive combinations of textures - iron rust and skin, wire and black hair, bolts and fur. His work shows us the beauty in the organic and the inorganic coming together as one.
