sowsow
Illustration, character design, and playful worlds



sowsow’s portfolio connects card illustration with a broad character-design practice. After studying graphic design and spending ten years designing characters and toys at a Bandai Namco group company, sowsow moved into freelance illustration. The work spans books, toys, packaging, and other trading card games. Pokémon projects also include Pokémon Sleep artwork and the main visual for the 2023 NHK Symphony Orchestra collaboration. The portfolio is a useful place to discover familiar touches beyond the cards.
