This one's from my archives — back then I loved drawing band-themed illustrations 🎸🏠 Hope you like it! Thanks so much for always checking out my work. Here's to a great June!
今回のイラストは昔描いた作品で、バンドをテーマにしたイラストを描くのが好きでした。気に入っていただけたら嬉しいです。いつも見てくれてありがとう。6月もどうぞよろしくお願いします！ https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DZAVRJwkilA/
This one's from my archives — a fake record cover I really love 今回はアーカイブのお気に入り作品から。架空のレコード・ジャケット風のイラストです。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DYmhNoYEm9E/
Today, May 16th, marks the 60th anniversary of The Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds" — one of the greatest albums ever made 🌊🎶
5月16日はThe Beach Boysの「Pet Sounds」リリース60周年記念です。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DYYO4YuEhSC/
This one's straight from my sketchbook doodles — a couple of mysterious little creatures roaming around in the night.
今回はいつもスケッチブックに描いている落書きから。夜を徘徊するキャラクターたちです。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DYUbcfRktaG/
I was actually hospitalized during the long holiday break. I had a bad fall near my home and ended up having to call an ambulance because the pain was so intense I couldn’t move. Thankfully, nothing was broken, but the whole situation was pretty shocking and honestly left me feeling a bit miserable too. I was able to leave the hospital after about 10 days, and the experience really made me appreciate the importance of good health all over again. Feeling grateful.
実は大型連休中、入院してました。自宅近くで転倒してしまい、痛みで動けないため救急車を呼ぶことになった。骨折は免れたものの、突然の顛末にショックと情けない気持ちが混じり合うことに。骨折もなく10日ほどで退院できたけど、改めて健康でいることの有り難みを感じました。感謝だね。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DXmMw-9Ei_s/
This one’s from my archives. From rough sketches to collages using old paper and vintage magazines, I’ve explored all kinds of ways to express a happy, playful mood. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my work today—I really appreciate it.
今回は過去のアーカイブから。ラフなスケッチや古紙、古雑誌のコラージュなど、いろんな方法でハッピーで陽気な気分を表現しています。今日も見に来てくれてありがとうございます。感謝です。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DWtbN6HElaJ/
Cherry blossom season is winding down, and already I can feel that early summer vibe in the air! The weather's shifting, the mood is changing, and I wanted to capture that feeling in this piece. All these cheerful characters are ready for whatever kind of day it'll be. 🌸☀️
桜の季節も終わり、早くも夏を予感させる陽気になってきました。そんな気分を反映した今回のイラストです。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DXRe0W-kmtD/
This one's from my sketchbook doodles! Vintage analog TVs are one of my favorite things to draw—I just can't resist sketching them whenever I get the chance. There's something so charming about those old screens and antennae. 📺 Same channel, different vibes!
今回のイラストはスケッチブックの落書きから。古いアナログテレビは大好きなモチーフなので、ついつい描いてしまいます。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DW_ffWbEoUe/
Back in the day, I’d always have leftover acrylic paint on my palette, so I couldn’t bear to waste it. I’d just grab some extra paper and start doodling! 🎨 Looking at these sketches now, they feel so fresh and alive. I think it’s because I was completely free from the pressure of “real work”—no stakes, just pure joy. That relaxed energy shows in every line. Pretty cool how that works, right? 😄
以前はイラスト制作時に使った絵皿に溶いたアクリル絵具が残ると、もったいないから余った紙によく絵を描いていました。今見ると新鮮です。何やら本番の責任感から解放されているせいか、いい意味で力が抜けているようです。面白いなあ。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DV8dcHZEvki/
Here are some doodles I sketched on a whiteboard notebook I actually use for my illustration work! 🛠️ Sure, the whiteboard surface means I can’t draw super detailed stuff, but honestly? That’s kind of the magic of it. The limitation pushes me to draw with a looser, more carefree style—less overthinking, more boldness. It’s taught me not to fear making mistakes. The only real downside is that over time, some marks won’t erase completely, just like a real whiteboard! But that’s part of its charm, I guess. 😄
今回は以前イラストの作品づくりに使っているノートになったホワイトボードに実際描いた落書きの模様をお届けします。🛠️ ホワイトボードの特性上、細かい絵が描けないという欠点があるものの、そのおかげで神経質ではない大らかな絵を描くセンスと失敗を恐れない潔さが育まれてくる。そこがいいなと使っていて思ったよ。物理的な欠点は経年劣化で使っていくうちにクリーナーで消えない箇所が出てきてしまうこと。そこは実際のホワイトボード同じだね。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DV6BBRdkq8H/
This one was inspired by a post from one of my followers. Sharing a flyer I designed back in the day for FPM (Fantastic Plastic Machine). Looking at the date—2009—brings back a lot of memories.
今回のイラストは僕のフォロワーさんの投稿に影響されて、以前、僕が手がけたFPMことFantastic Plastic Machineのフライヤーのお仕事を紹介します。日付を見ると2009年とあり、何もかも懐かしいです。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DW1M7O0EkDF/
This reel is a mix of various illustrations I’ve created in the past, all put together into one video.
今回は過去に作ったイラストをいくつか取り混ぜて、リール動画にまとめてみました。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DWh0d-1kpRD/

It’s a 3D figure version of my original character Chill & Cozy, generated with Gemini. It seems like it struggles to tell the difference between outlines and inner lines in 2D illustrations, so the result changes every time. Doesn’t feel like something you can fully fix with prompts. Tricky stuff. Still, it’s fascinating to see objects that don’t exist in reality take shape like this. Probably not practical for client work though.
今回は僕のオリジナル・キャラクターChill&CozyをGeminiでフィギュア化したもの。どうやら2Dイラストの輪郭とイラスト内の実線との判別が難しいらしく、生成するたびに結果が違ってくる。これはプロンプトで解決できる問題ではないように思う。難しいね。しかし現実には存在していない立体物が現れるのは面白いなと思う。仕事で使うには難しいけどね。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DWU_84VkkwM/
This one's from my everyday sketchbook doodles! 🎨 The background texture is actually a close-up photo of a handmade playground structure from a park where I used to play with my kids. With AI becoming so prevalent in creative work these days, I've been feeling a stronger pull to go back to something more simple and authentic. There's something pure about creating with your own hands, you know? ✨
今回はいつもスケッチブックに描いているお気軽な落書きから。背景のテクスチャは、昔、こどもとよく遊んでいた公園の手作り遊具の拡大写真。AIが創作に蔓延る今こそ、より素朴な創作に帰りたいとの思いを込めて。 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DWG18orEjrM/
Throwback to 2009! 🎨 This piece is my attempt to recreate that classic vintage picture book technique—you know, the one where they used just three colors of ink to print everything. It's tricky, it's challenging, but man, is it fun! Take a close look and see how I've separated the colors. The magic really happens when you realize how much can be created with just red, yellow-green, and blue-green.
これは2009年の作品です。海外の古い絵本でよく見られる、3色のインクで印刷された手法を再現したもの。とても難しいけど、本当に楽しい作業です。色がどのように分けられているかをよく見てください。赤、黄緑、青緑の3色だけでここまで表現できることが面白い。

Here's a little thank-you gift I made for Love Psychedelico! 🎸 They asked me to create the cover art for their fifth album, "Abbot Kinney," and I was honored. Now they're in the middle of their tour before going on hiatus. I'm sending all my good vibes for a successful final tour and endless gratitude to all their amazing fans. Thank you so much! 🙏
今回はLove Psychedelicoに彼らの5枚目のアルバム「Abbot Kinney」のカバーアートを依頼していただいたお礼に、プレゼントしたオリジナル・ウクレレの写真です。今、Love Psychedelicoは活動休止を前にしたツアーの真っ最中ですが、無事ツアーの成功を心から祈っています。そして、たくさんのファンの皆さんに感謝をしたいと思います。どうもありがとう！🙏 https://www.instagram.com/toru_fukuda/p/DV3HajrkmFn/
