Koko is one of my top illustrators to work with. Her work is outstanding, she's easy to collaborate with, her creative ideas helped my project come to life, and I absolutely adore her art!

Koko is a fabulous artist partner. Her work is as vibrant and detailed as she is! KoKo is a clear communicator with attention to quality, always making sure that her work is presented well and that the exhibition elements are clean and crisp. We are grateful to have her as a collaborating partner, and look forward to the day we show her work in Japan!

I find Koko's blend of carefully observed drawings, augmented with subtle digital textures and little notes of wry humor, to be addictive in the best way. As a university press, we're very careful about spending money on luxuries like custom illustration. But I'm always keeping an eye out for projects that would benefit from "the Koko treatment.”
Bob Greenspun
Lake City Summer Festival and Parade Director
The Lake City Summer Festival and Parade in Northeast Seattle likes to have a new logo each year to create a unique theme and identity that represents the people of Lake City. Koko did a great job of listening to our leadership group and incorporating our thoughts and vision. She made our ideas real! Her design is beloved to us now.
On a business level, she was always very clear about expectations and timelines.
Koko made the whole process a joy.

Koko's artwork captivates with its gentleness and simplicity, utilizing delicate expressions crafted from clean lines to masterfully capture the beauty of everyday moments. Each piece represents a serene and exquisite snapshot of life. I commissioned her to create a packaging illustration for our Mid-Autumn Festival Mooncake gift set. Our conversation was delightful, and the resulting artwork exceeded his expectations. I am thrilled to recommend Koko’s exceptional talents to everyone.

I asked Koko to draw my portrait that I planned to use for my social media profile, and it came out more amazing that I had imagined!! Koko was communicative in understanding what I wanted, and adjusted the details of the portrait with my preferences. To this date, my profile is the portrait that Koko drew, and I have no plans to change it! In addition, I was gifted a stop motion drawing video of my portrait where we can see each stroke Koko took with her brush while drawing this. I cannot speak more highly of Koko’s skills, taste for beauty and professionalism!

We hired Koko to do an illustration for my sister's birthday. Koko was so easy to work with and produced a beautiful illustration. She was open to feedback and adjusting different elements. After just a couple iterations, it was the perfect birthday present! Highly recommend working with Koko for your next project!
