Momo Sugimoto is a Japanese-Australian illustrator based in Sydney/Eora, specialising in environment concept art, design, and children’s illustration. Her work is a vibrant re-imagining of the everyday, often blending elements from her local urban and natural surroundings with the rich cultural influences of her upbringing and experiences across various cities in Japan and beyond. Momo’s portfolio spans a wide array of styles, from stylised to realistic, with a strong focus on colour and light, often featuring the presence of a cat or two. Momo’s journey to becoming a professional illustrator was paved by diverse experiences, with her passion for artistic expression originating in musical form as a classical music major at university. Alongside her efforts to engage with the broader creative community as well as her work with clients and publishers worldwide, Momo enjoys working with her local community, contributing to educational institutions, small businesses, and art shows.
Momo is represented by IllustrationX.
