Modern Mucha depicts the state of aesthetics
Onineko is an illustrator who captivates viewers with her worldview based on beautiful girls.
His works create a delicate and aesthetic world that leaves a deep impression on the viewer.
Onineko's works seem to bring back Art Nouveau from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century. The beautiful girls he depicts have a beauty reminiscent of the women painted by Art Nouveau master Alphonse Mucha, but also emit a unique delicacy and charm.
Onineko Sensei's painting style is a fusion of naturalism and decorativeism, and is characterized by decorative designs with floral patterns and animal motifs. Additionally, flowing curves and "whiplash" lines add a sense of movement and life to the entire screen, providing a visual feast.
But more than just beauty, Onineko-sensei's works express deep emotions. Each character has their own story, and their eyes give a glimpse into their inner world.
Onineko's work is worthy of being called a modern-day Mucha due to its delicacy and aesthetic worldview. The emotion and beauty contained in the artist's works will leave a lasting impression on viewers, as they will deeply empathize and move them.

Onineko Sensei production story
Q.How do you create your own works?
I often create a rough sketch of the vague image that pops into my head, and then refine the composition. While following trends, I create my work while respecting my own individuality.
Q.What is your source of inspiration?
I sometimes think of illustrations based on things that move me, such as beautiful scenery I see while traveling, or photos of buildings and landscapes. I sometimes input things by looking at cute accessories, etc., and sometimes I draw scenes that come to mind while listening to songs.
Q.What do you want to convey through illustrations?
I aim to create illustrations that leave a lasting impression at first glance. I want to be able to draw things that make people feel a variety of emotions when they see them.
Q.What is the theme of your current work and what are the thoughts behind it?
I drew this with the theme of my favorite season, the beginning of summer. I also like summer dusk, so I'm imagining it when the sun is just starting to set. In order to make Emori Mirai's blue hair stand out, and also to reflect the feeling that it was her first time participating, I chose white as the main color for her costume and flowers. I was very nervous while making it, but I had fun drawing it...!
