He popularized the terms イラストレーション "illustration" and イラストレーター"illustrator" in the lexicon of 1960s Japan, and  has created hundreds of works ranging from advertisments to album covers to theatre posters. He has also served as a curator, stage designer, and artistic director. He continues to be active as one of Japan's foremost illustrators and graphic designers at the age of 91 years old.
