Ozabu is a self-taught Japanese painter and an illustrator whose elaborate drawings are rich with content and details. Her work was featured in an exhibition at the Thinkspace Projects. Ozabu’s self-taught drawings are staggeringly detailed, stylized and yet lifelike, rendered with incredibly subtle line work. Created with minimal media in pencil and graphite on paper, her ghostly hauntings of paper flesh range from the comely to the macabre. The way she renders skin is so subtle and delicate, and her line work is god-like. Ozabu is currently working on an upcoming solo show and regularly posts in-progress and completed pieces on Instagram.
