Just Living in a 2D World, oil on canvas, 1999. Contact Blum & Poe for availability.

I found My Sweet Dog Pulltoy on a daddytypes.com a cool weblog for new dads. What' so appealing about Nara's wooden pulltoy, beyond it's clean Pop aesthetic, is it's handcrafted by artisans in France -- not lead-based China. This toy really could be a fun AND safe investment for you or your child.

You can also adorn your wall with this Yoshitomo Nara poster, Do Not Disturb! c. 1996
