Hobonichi A5 Cover - Kyohei Sakaguchi: Field Sky

He doesn’t construct buildings, yet he’s an architect. He writes, sings, photographs, and paints. Kyohei Sakaguchi has continued creating in all these forms—effortlessly, like breathing. This Hobonichi Techo cover features one of his pastel paintings.

Living in Kumamoto Prefecture, Sakaguchi began growing vegetables on a plot he rented in a community garden in 2020. On his way to the garden and while tending his plot, he captures the scenery with his smartphone. He uses these photos as references for his pastel artwork.

This picture, “Field Sky,” was drawn on October 17, 2021. The tall autumn sky glows pale blue, with dry air and white clouds swelling upward. The trees swaying in the wind, the strong, sprawling branches and leaves stretching into the vast sky—all radiate the vibrant force of nature.
