Parents' lives
Adult life
long life

Today too, with your own color
The story of you and me filling in the pieces of life

Although we can't define all life forms as one, we often find ourselves experiencing memories and emotions flowing through other people's lives that feel familiar to us as if they were our own.
As we accumulate these moments, we come to realize that we share similar memories of someone who enjoyed the innocent freedom of childhood, and that we see in others the face of that time, filled with love.


In "All the Colors of Life," there are various colorful periods called "Child's Life," "Boy's Life," "One's Life," "Parent's Life," "Adult's Life," and "Long Life."
The author shows us the vast time of life through words and pictures, and we each discover our own individuality within it.


In 'A Child's Life', moments of freely using the five senses to learn about the world are summoned.
They experience the most 'firsts' in life, blurring the line between imagination and reality, and are the most courageous yet also infinitely vulnerable.
The story of the characters in 'Boy's Life' revolves more around their relationships with those around them.
If the scenes in 'A Child's Life' are fantastical depictions of the external world, in 'A Boy's Life' the author shows us how we were lost and what kind of mind we had during that time through pictures that symbolize our inner emotions.
The constant shifts in language that defines us, from minor to adult, from child to parent, can often be confusing, but that's what makes meeting people who empower us in our imperfections all the more precious.


'My Life' and 'My Parents' Life', which are the times when we experience the greatest identity change in our lives, are also stories about love.
The experience of meeting a lover, feeling ecstasy, raising children, and filling the world with love is beautiful and life becomes new.
But the author also does not miss the fact that this life is not always beautiful or romantic.
Through psychological depictions that maximize realism, it shows both the light and dark sides of life, eliciting deep empathy from the viewer.
'Adult life' is a diverse range of situations that are difficult to define with a single expression.
It's a series of moments that everyone has experienced and felt at least once: missing childhood, still struggling with identity, and worrying about continuing a relationship with a lover.


However, just as people in similar situations choose different paths or face different endings, the narrator in "All the Colors of Life" respects each person's choice and carefully examines their different situations and emotions.
In 'A Long Life', there are characters who, even as they grow older, still retain their innocence and excitement inside.
People in those days could do whatever they wanted whenever they wanted and never forgot to be grateful to those around them.
At the same time, as my body weakens, I struggle with the growing loneliness and sense of loss that I feel each day.
Through these affectionate words and concise illustrations, the author does not hide his wish for them to remember the love they have received forever, and leaves a warm feeling in the hearts of those who see them.


A letter filled with affectionate comfort and encouragement,
“I hope you feel loved every moment of your life.”

Some days, we were invincible. Other days, we were hurt and wounded. Sometimes the world was unfair, so we had to fight. But I hope you felt loved back then.
(Pages 32-41)

Just as empathy requires imagination, Lisa Aisato's paintings are characterized by their vivid imagination, which plays a significant role in conveying the sincere comfort and encouragement the artist conveys.
"All the Colors of Life" is filled with the hope that you will never forget the memories of being loved, even in moments of love, sadness, joy, fear, and hope.
The author affirms every moment of life, but instead of simply embellishing it, he broadens the scope of empathy by seeing it as it is, sometimes showing the harsh reality as it is.
And when the long journey of life ends, when we return with all the colors of life within us, I hope you feel that “every moment of your life, you were loved.”
This is a story like a letter sent by a loving person when you want to comfort someone you care about the time you have lived so far, look forward to the life ahead, and hope that the future will be precious, when you reminisce about the past and cheer on your present self.


A fusion of imaginative, original illustrations and narration that deeply explores life!

Lisa Aisato, in her portrayal of life, focuses on the characters, using colorful flowers, nature, and animals to intimately portray their states.
Also, the characters' expressions are maximized in moments of joy and sorrow, such as the heart of a boy who wants to rebel but also wants to rely on others endlessly, or the image of parents who enjoy time alone but are happy to be with their family. Also, the characters' expressions and eyes are drawn with rich expressions, as in 'A Child's Life' and 'A Long Life'.
Especially, the eye contact they make with us beyond the screen may seem weak on the outside, but it strongly reminds us that children and the elderly are also people who live their lives independently.


"All the Colors of Life" depicts our lives realistically yet fantastically, as if reflected in a mirror.
Just looking at the 95 paintings, which freely move between various styles as diverse as the various aspects of life, leaves a great resonance.
Follow the narration that intimately unfolds the story contained in the pictures, turn each scene, and read with your loved ones to find out which moments in "All the Colors of Life" resemble your life today, and what colors you are filling yourself with.
