BIOGRAPHY:
Artist Sayuka Bloodstone was born in Osaka, Japan. She has an undergraduate degree in pharmacy, and a graduate degree in bio-informatics. In 2005, she moved to Tokyo to pursue a career as an artist. As a self-taught artist, Sayuka started working with pen and ink illustrations, developing her technique to include etching, and print design using copper plates. Describing her unique style as “Neo Japanese Gothic,” she merges a traditional Japanese style with modern Manga elements to create works that are dark, yet beautiful. In 2009, she started her painting series titled Original Artworks of Japanese Traditional Specter, which is inspired by the traditional Japanese Yokai and celestial monsters that cannot be seen with the human eye. Sayuka has participated in group exhibitions throughout Japan and The United States.
