Your food and drinks deserve artwork as good as what's inside.
Hi, I’m Anna
I grew up in Japan, studied in California, and somehow ended up living on an island in the middle of the Mediterranean where the tomatoes are unreasonably good and everyone has an opinion about who makes the best caponata (hello, Sicily!).
Food has been my obsession since I was seventeen — when I was sick in a hospital bed and started drawing pictures of everything I couldn't eat. That's still essentially what I do today. Except now I do it for food makers who care as deeply about what they make as I care about eating it.
I'm an illustrator and brand designer working with artisan food producers across the US, Italy, and Japan. I make packaging, labels, and visual identities that make products look as extraordinary as they actually are.
If that sounds like what your brand needs — I'd love to talk.

Packaging Design
I design packaging for food makers who care deeply about what they make, because I care about eating well. From full brand identity to multi-SKU packaging systems, I'll give your creation the look it deserves to be a part of people’s lives.
My packaging for ETTO Pastificio is now on the shelves of 30+ Whole Foods stores!

Wine and Spirits Labels
Look, I love a good glass of a good drink. That’s why I design labels for artisanal producers with big stories, with the kind of wine or spirit that deserves a label as unique as the ones who made it.
From Sicilian volcanic wines to California natural wine — I speak the language of both.

Editorial Illustrations
Food has always been the best way to tell a story about a place, a people, a season. I've been telling those stories for Edible — the James Beard Award-winning culinary publication — and other publications for nearly a decade.
Covers, maps, features, portraits. If it involves food and a story worth telling beautifully, I'm in.

Children's Book Illustrations
The best children's books stay in our hearts for a lifetime. I've illustrated books for publishers in the US, Europe, and Japan — bringing characters, food, and culture to life for young readers.
