Teppei Sasakura
His evocative and gentle landscape paintings, overflowing with emotion and soft light, have garnered widespread support from people of all ages as images that "bring peace to the heart." Since his debut as an artist, he has published over 200 prints, art books, poetry collections, catalogs, and DVD collections, and his art goods such as posters, jigsaw puzzles, postcards, and calendars are also very popular. In recent years, he has held successful exhibitions in France, China, Italy, and other countries, conveying the Japanese sense of beauty and gentleness to the world through his beautiful landscape paintings.
