A graphic design graduate from the Osaka University of Art, Toshiyuki Fukuda (福田利之) is a prolific illustrator whose art work has graced countless magazines, children’s books, T-shirts, music album covers and many more. This 2nd collection of his art work ( see the first collection here ) showcases more than 200 pages of his delightful illustrations.

(image above) The art book comes housed in a lovely slip case.

(above right) This particular piece feels like a tribute to one of my favorite painter/artist of all times, the Austrian symbolist painter Gustav Klimt.

(above & below) Front and back covers of the art book and the slipcase.

Toshiyuki Fukuda’s charming and colorful illustrations are informed by his strong background in graphic design, striking a harmonious style and balance between the two that is highly appealing to me. My highest recommendations.

Availability – This art book was published fairly recently after the time of writing ( May 2020 ), so none of the Amazon stores outside of Japan carry it yet. I’ll update the links in the near future when they do become available. In the meantime, Amazon Japan ships internationally so you can still purchase it from the link below.
