Nobyuki SHIMAMURA ✿

Nobyuki SHIMAMURA /日本畫傢島村信之, is a Japanese painter born in Saitama prefecture in 1965. Graduated from the Department of Oil Painting, Musashino Art University. After graduating with a master’s degree in 1991, he began exhibiting his work at Hakujitsukai and every year thereafter. Shimamura has been focusing his artistic pursuits on mastering the style of hyperrealism, and wishes to share the power of this genre as a representative of Japan. Beneath his art is a subtle tension that exists between his gentle touch and the mastery of his skills through a diligent work ethic and strong will that doesn’t accept compromise. His works portray the natural beauty of women in life, and the overall picture is soft and elegant.
