Perhaps the most gifted of the abstract artists of the Yoshida family, Kenji Yoshida was born in the year 1935.

Kenji Yoshida is known for his very large abstract paintings that include metallic leaf.

Kenji Yoshida has also worked in the animation industry. He founded his own animation studio.

What wonderful shapes the artist creates in his abstract work. I enjoy the mix of these shapes and use of metallic leaf.

What a wonderfully artistic family!
