■From the author (excerpt from this book) Hello, this is ONOCO. I've loved drawing since I was a child, and I've always played with drawing. Even as an adult, drawing reminds me of the fun times I had as a child. I want to continue painting pictures of adults who never lose their childlike heart. He is not trying to reach beyond his limits, but he is not satisfied with the status quo either; he has a burning passion in his heart. That's the kind of illustrator I want to be. It is thanks to many people that my illustrations were able to be published as a book. Thank you to everyone who helped. I hope that my collection of works, "ADVENTURE," will leave a lasting impression on everyone.
