Hisashi Matsumoto
Japan
Hisashi Matsumoto was born in 1983 and is currently 41 years old.
He admires Rembrandt and began his career as a painter by learning Western classical techniques at Kyoto Seika University's oil painting course.
Initially, he began his career as a painter painting self-portraits, learning from Rembrandt, but as he continued to present himself as a painter, his style of expression changed to a new one.
His characteristics include his meticulous observation of his subjects and meticulous brushstrokes that compose his paintings. Sometimes he depicts realistic scenes, and sometimes he inserts multiple realistic objects into a completely different world to create an unrealistic world.
Currently, he is actively working on constructing completely different worlds using nostalgic and current everyday objects.
The world of painting he creates is a uniquely Japanese world, using Western classical painting techniques.
