Jun Kubota decided to pursue his life as a painter leaving his career as an advertisement producer, a career he chose after graduating from Tokyo University of the Arts. Ever since, he has been living in Kamakura painting and surfing. His translucent usage of colors reflect strongly the shimmering lights you'd find on the beaches and the ocean. He has been showing his works constantly in galleries in Tokyo and Shonan, Nami ni noru from BuenoBooks is one of many picture books he has produced.
