Profile
At age 25 Fukiko Yamamoto completed a PhD in Western history but quickly gave up her first job in a Tokyo company to try and make a living at something she had loved since she was a child: drawing. She took the brave step of freelancing in the competitive Tokyo market for illustrators and from 1996 started to exhibit her unusual silkscreen prints. Her work is now sought after for book and magazine illustrations, especially magazine covers. Forever exploring new areas of creativity, Yamamoto has studied a myriad of techniques from silkscreen printing to traditional scroll mounting and digital textile printing and has begun working on merchandising her designs.
