About me

My name is Takako Miki. I prefer to use MIKITAKAKO as an artist name. I am a Japan-based freelance Illustrator. I studied illustration in Kingston University London from 2013 to 2014. My recent inspiration are fashion, travel and everyday-life. I work with line drawing and coloured paper, and collaging them to find a new composition of the object for visual story telling. For illustration commotion, please feel free to contact MIKITAKAKO Illustration.
