- "VISITORS" are strange "visitors" who visit your timeline once a day. ー
Since 2016, the artist himself has been drawing a character portrait a day and presenting it on Instagram, which has now been collected in a book.
The characters continue to visit the timelines of new followers every day with sarcasm and humor.

VISITORS" is the name of a series of portraits of characters that I have been drawing one a day on instagram since 2016. It is named after the 'visitors' who visit the timeline of the followers who follow our Instagram account once a day.

Inspired by the artist's own fantasies (boyhood memories, cartoons, superheroes, etc.), he draws them as they come to him in about 30 minutes. First a rough sketch on paper and pencil, then the tension is immediately digitized on the computer. Almost without a break, he continues to create imaginary shapes, nice girls, science fiction, and ambiguous entities that might really exist somewhere on his timeline. He currently has more than 38,000 followers (as of November 2022). His works have been featured in the French art media "emporium" and the Thai creative media, and have been made into T-shirts and other goods in various countries, and are also popular overseas, including collaborations with a store in the Czech Republic.
