Illustrator in NYC

I illustrate books, draw comics and paint

My name is Laura Wood and I'm an independent illustrator. Originally from a small town in the north of Italy, I studied illustration in the wonderful city of Melbourne, Australia, where I started my illustration career. After a few years of seeking adventures and travelling around the world, I currently live and work in Milan, Italy. I create my art digitally using lots of textured brushes and a fun colour palette. Amongst my favourite things, there is dancing, meeting new people and visiting new places.

Takahiro Kimura is a Japanese animator, illustrator and character designer based in Tokyo. Takahiro studied technology of painting and graphic design at Salesian Polytechnic, as well as drawing, landscape painting and fashion drawing at Setsu Mode Seminar. In 2003 Takahiro created a group of web and television collage animation characters collectively called Kimsnake.

I'm an illustrator and I love working with people, helping create visual solutions that are engaging, inspirational and imaginatively capture the message and identity of a given brief - be it an editorial illustration, a promotional campaign or a large-scale public facing artwork.
