Things are beautiful if you love them

Please help me ID some art.

So, I'm reading about new music, and suddenly I'm captivated by a work of art. Not cover art, though, but seemingly random art hanging behind the musician in an uncaptioned photo. I'm desperately hopeful that it's famous and I'm ignorant, so I can find a print of it and hang it on my wall.

I've googled the artist's name and found the image several times, but never captioned with anything useful. If for some reason it might be helpful the musician is Keith Kenniff, aka Helios, and he's from Massachusetts.

Are you sure it's not the album art-artist's work? The artist is Matthew Woodson, apparently. They look similar.

The dress the girl is in looks like North Korean or Japanese school uniform, btw.

Here's his MySpace profile:

He has that exact images in his account pictures. He also seems to encourage messages. Maybe he could help you himself. :)

Response by poster: OK, no luck with the myspace contact, either he doesn't know or he doesn't answer myspace messages. I'm still looking, marking this stumped in case an art expert is around.

The image I linked is gone, check here for the original on myspace, you may need a myspace login to do so.

Mod note: Final update from the OP:
The artwork is titled "Clover", it is by Tateishi Harumi, and the original hangs in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
