Hometown Roads is the second postcard book by Mateusz Urbanowicz ! ( read my review for the first book here )
It includes 24 postcards selected from the book “Tokyo at Night” published in 2019 and “Okuradashi – Uncollected Works 2010-2021” published in 2022, which depicts nostalgic scenery of Japan. In addition, the book also includes illustrations that are published for the first time.
Mateusz Urbanowicz is a Polish illustrator based in Tokyo, Japan. He previously worked as a background artist at Comix Wave, the studio behind Shinkai Makoto’s anime films and have contributed to renowned titles like “Space Dandy” and “Your Name“. Since 2017 he has been working as a freelance artist to focus on his own original works.
I’ve been a big fan of his illustrations since 2016 after discovering his work Bicycle Boy.
Highly recommended. I also suggest checking out Mateusz Urbanowicz’s other art books like Tokyo At Night as well as Uncollected Works, both of which are excellent.
Just like his first postcard book, this one is small and compact in size but packed full of gorgeous art and works perfectlu as a gift for your friends or loved ones.
