Since every note Toru Takemitsu wrote for the guitar was a gem it's understandable that guitarist composers have paid homage to his music. Atanas Ourkouzounov wrote "Postlude in Green" and here's a video of the work with a read along score.

The work is on the CD Autoportrait II.
I have heard, from reliable sources, that the CD set of Atanas Ourkouzounov's five guitar sonatas is going to be ready this December through Naxos, recorded by Kostas Tosidis. I am so getting that album when it comes out. I've been enjoying Ricardo Gallen's two-disc recording of the complete Leo Brouwer guitar sonatas and to have a recording of Ourkouzounov's guitar sonatas will make for a pretty good year for classical guitar sonatas for 2019!
