From 1992 to the present, she has regularly held solo exhibitions of new works and has been actively presenting her work. Her publications include "Romantic Otome Style" and "Dreaming Girls" (both published by Pie International), "Makoto's Aesthetics" and "Akogare: Takahashi Makoto Art Collection" (both published by Fukankan.com), "Takahashi Makoto's Girls' Coloring Book: Princesses of the World" and "Takahashi Makoto's Girls' Coloring Book: Princesses of Japan" (both published by Kodansha).
