Minimalist illustrations by Noritake

Noritake draws with black lines on white. Both covers here hold a single scene and no background. In the first, a person holds up a framed portrait in front of their own face.

In the second, a person sits facing a black cat. The figures are simple: a rounded head, a few dots for a face, clean outlines.

Noritake is a Japanese illustrator who works in advertising, publishing and fashion. The same line runs across prints, notebooks and t-shirts. The drawings stay spare.
