Hi.
I am Yoriko, an artist living in New York City.
I am the owner of this shop, the illustrator of these prints and cards, designer/maker of these funny linen bibs, and the photographer of all of my products. I am also a painter, a poet (I write poems in Japanese), and a mother to a lovely 9-year-old. Oh, and I am married to this guy who makes monsters; Google “Kaiju Big Battel" if you are curious :)

I love to cook, read (Agatha Christie, Hayao Kawai, and Haruki Murakami are among my favorites), chat with friends over coffee, and though I don’t have enough time lately, I like to crochet and knit, too, in my spare time. My next big knitting challenge is a pair of Latvian mittens!

I am against any wars and nuclear power. I believe in peace and sustainable lifestyle.

I started my Etsy shop because I wanted my art to step outside galleries and museums, and enter people’s everyday lives.

If you find something that connect with your heart in my shop, that is wonderful.

Thanks for stopping by,

Yoriko
