He built his first career as a freelance maze illustrator working for the Japanese fashion magazine POPYE.
After a decade he founded his own company,“Graphics and Designing Inc. in 1981.
Aiba says:
My source of creations are my early experience of bonsai making and maze illustration.
If you explore any small part of my works, you find amazing stories and some unique characters.
The early bonsai-key in models look like bonsai art.
Bonsai reflects the Japanese traditional aesthetic sense of expressing the magnificence of nature in a small potted plant.
