Izakaya Pins and Buttons
Description: The izakaya is a Japanese bar very appreciated for its conviviality. Women as well as men go there to have fun after work, to relax. Sake, beer, small dishes, ... Everything you need! I was inspired by the beautiful women drawn by the Japanese artist Utamaro. He took as models 3 women with frivolous morals, whose beauty was without equal. They are called jewels: beautiful women. A style of ukiyo-e, the bijinga, dedicates this art to the drawing of beautiful women. Here, the 3 women in kimono are at the bar: the oldest one takes care of the izakaya and wipes a plate. She is the owner of the place. The woman on the right and the one on the left are drinking a beer after an exhausting day.
Description: A vibrant retro gaming graphic featuring two legendary fantasy-inspired rivals enjoying a cheerful night at a traditional Japanese izakaya. Surrounded by yakitori, ramen, beer, sake, lanterns, and classic gaming references, the artwork blends arcade nostalgia with Japanese nightlife culture. Bold manga-style illustration, warm colors, halftone textures, and playful details create an energetic design perfect for gamers, anime fans, retro game enthusiasts, Japanese food lovers, fantasy collectors, and anyone who appreciates humorous crossover-style gaming art.
Description: Possibly one of the greatest institutions ever created in Japan… the IZAKAYA! Literally it means “a place for drinking”, it’s essentially a Japanese tapas restaurant with loads alcohol, and a great variety of small plates of food for sharing. Many chain izakayas have picture menus in Japan, which also ups the awesome factor when you don’t speak Japanese. Just beware of “nonkotsu”… it looks like fried chicken, but it fried pieces of cartilage… we’ve made that mistake before. Get this shirt and get to an izakaya now!
