As a third-generation Japanese American from New York City, Milt Kobayashi's work is influenced in part by Japanese artistry, including manga drawings and Japanese woodblock prints, and inspired by everyday observations that stem from the colors, ideas, and figurative images of the city he calls home.

While color has always sparked inspiration, palette has typically been secondary for Milt Kobayashi—until now. In this latest collection, the color sets the tone. He has embraced chromatics, focusing on the three primary colors of red, yellow, and blue to both convey the tone and personality of each subject and complement their abstract surroundings.

Each painting offers a glimpse into the soul of his figures, capturing a fleeting moment of profound personal reflection and emotion, enticing the viewer to immerse themselves in each intimate, quiet drama.

Milt Kobayashi's "Primaries" will be on exhibition at Bonner David Galleries New York from December 7^th through January 5^th, with an opening reception on Thursday, December 7^th from 6-8 pm. Don't miss this opportunity to meet the artist and experience his exquisite new collection of work.
