Office worker Emiko Tamaki has become more optimistic ever since she began modeling for the awkward but self-assured artist Shunsui Ishihara. With a budding awareness that she’s the subject of his gaze, Tamaki has a new spring in her step and puts effort into being a better model for Ishihara”not realizing it makes him worry! And inspired by her, Ishihara branches out and takes on new artistic challenges…but is he prepared for the changes tied to his recent work?
