Overview

Mototsugu Domoto (1923-2010) was born in Kyoto, Japan. In 1941, he entered Kyoto City Technical School of Painting (present Kyoto City University of Arts) with the intention of becoming a Japanese-style painter. He was graduate early two years then went to the war (World War II). After the war, he began his career as a painter and challenged to work in various art genres under the influence of Insho Domoto.
