I love how he captures movement and form with such freely drawn lines, and yet there is a certain level of detail and delicacy to his work so that it works even with very minimal colouring and shading.
Conversely many of his illustrations are highly polished and refined, such as the above. I find the soft, whimsical colouring to be a perfect contrast to his use of bold and often highly detailed black outlines. The influence of traditional oriental art and mythology is present in the linework and in the figures he draws, which often seem to be a cross between beautiful humans and spirits/demons.
