El Pino is one of the Japanese illustrators curated at FACTO. Specializing in Japanese illustration, this artist brings a distinctive presence to Japan's contemporary art scene.
About El Pino
El Pino is a Japanese illustrator and graphic designer drawing deeply from American comics, mid-century cartoons, and 1940s-60s design — filtered through a distinctly Japanese sensibility. A presence in Japan's creative event circuit, after working at design agencies and apparel brands he went independent and now creates illustrations, logo designs, book art, and event key visuals for clients in Japan and abroad. His original work carries a signature blend of humor and edge — playful with a touch of mischief. Beer, coffee, movies, radio, and punk rock fuel his creative practice.
