Life has always been the inspiration of Japanese artist Yuuki Nishimura. It is there that he finds the raw material for his work: people. The artist is known not for inventing characters, but for portraying the real lives of ordinary people. People so normal that, if it weren't for the tracing and the ink, they would go unnoticed by all of us.

Yuuki begins each day by spending 50 minutes drawing. His art is priceless memories of the people. By expressing their stories through sensitive artworks, he highlights his subjects' emotions and temperaments as the main subject.

    I hope that "cat" is a stuffed animal and not a real cat. It looks so depressed. Also, that child's neck/head don't look properly supported. It looks uncomfortable.

    I'm confused about the rings. I get that the two on the right are probably wedding rings, as I presume that they are Mom and Dad, but what about the girl on the far left. And the baby? That would be a choking hazard. Unless it was just for the photo (yes, I realise this is a sketch, but still).

    Five rings to bind them all together ... it's a symbol of their family ties.
