I am jealous of Tadahiro Uesugi

The way Tadahiro Uesugi draws those beautiful ladies wandering the streets of Paris, New York and Venice – such elegance! Head held high, stiletto heels and hair blowing in the wind – each one is truly a beauty. The color palettes he chooses are fantastically retro in style, and his patterned landscapes are dreamy. Plus the fact that I can’t draw human figures stylishly makes me all the more jealous!
