How to buy original art?

[TangledThorns]

I'm a long time Macross fan and looking to buy original Macross art by Shoji Kawamori and Haruhiko Mikimoto. I saw they had their own PR sites but didn't see anyway to contact them directly. I tried Google and so what is my best option besides flying to Japan? I checked the WTS section here but didn't see anybody selling original art. Any help to get me started would be great!!

Haruhiko Mikimoto sometimes held the exhibit of his art prints in Akiba.

And the pics are sold there. But so expensive.

For your information. the Macross Art Exhibit has already ended last year.

I have not pointed out before. Some Tenjin's pictures were sold at the venue in 2012, but those were "art prints," not the original hand-drawn ones. And so expensive. IIRC, one of them was 180,000 yen. About 1,762 dollars. Can you pay for it? And it was not the original.

Their own hand-drawn pictures have not been sold, AFAIK.

Thank you. I understand they would be expensive and would only buy a couple of pieces and frame them as art for my home. It'd be ideal if Shoji Kawamori and Haruhiko Mikimoto had a studio to sell the art for them
