< < This is Mariko and a malasada.
She works in Honolulu as an artist, picture book illustrator and graphic designer, and creates whimsical Hawai‘i- and nature-inspired ceramics for her line, Beachcake.
Mariko studied graphic design at Rhode Island School of Design. She subsequently worked in a wine shop, managed an art gallery, freelanced as a graphic designer, and now works part-time in a bookshop while making art and picture books.
I send occasional newsletter notes about Beachcake sales, new books, and other projects I’m working on. Sign up below if you’d like to receive updates.
