Continuation is the most difficult thing for a person to do. Even if it is something you love to do, to do the daily routine day in and day out may be the very reason why the best are the best.

Such is the case with "Drawing Leads to Another Dimension 1995-2020," a new collection of works by Hiro Sugiyama, a designer, illustrator, art director, and artist with a wide range of activities.
