A super-realistic illustrator, symbolized by the Sexy Robot, and the designer of the first AIBO or Mickey of the future. It was for such work that I got called on the most when I was being introduced to the public by the media. Each is certainly a very important work that I have great feelings for. But my collection of pin-up art, that ggg chose to exhibit on such a large scale, is a collection of 20 titles published in the past ten or more years into which I have put almost all of my energies during my life as an artist. It was the base for my life, gave me global recognition and the great support of fans. I would, of course, like to thank my friends for their support in making this exhibition happen and the people of this gallery who overly judged my work and made the dignified exhibition plan that I had hoped for my works with their extreme, erotic motifs.
