HARUKA YAMAKAWA

Japan | B.1993

After completing her studies at Tama Art University, she worked as a graphic designer at an advertising company in Tokyo before embarking on a career as a freelance illustrator. She primarily works with acrylic gouache on canvas and illustration boards, applying generous amounts of paint to create her signature look with a pop and nostalgic style. Her characters are characterised by their horizontal, oval faces, and she often draws inspiration from various sources, including movies, vintage posters, fashion magazines, foreign toys, a book on interior design, and photos of children's rooms. Her subjects are diverse and include people, animals, plants, and toys, which are beautifully captured in her illustrations.
