Akira Toriyama




Akira Toriyama is a highly influential Manga artist, best known for his popular series Dragon Ball - which is the best selling Manga of all time. His art has been a huge inspiration for me throughout my life and I am still sometimes influenced by it today.

Toriyama's Dragon Ball started out as a very loose adaptation of Wu Cheng En's story - Journey to the West. This story is what I'm basing my Journey project on, so Toriyama was the artist I looked to the most for inspiration.
