About the Artist

Ashiya Maki is a Japanese illustrator and painter who began her artistic career in 2016. Since 2020, she has worked as a full-time freelance artist, holding multiple solo exhibitions and serving as a lecturer at a specialized art school.

With her unique perspective and masterful technique, Ashiya Maki continues to push the boundaries of watercolor art, inviting viewers into a world where emotions and light blend seamlessly together.
