Hired on Thumbtack

We hired Masami for a quick turn around on eight character illustrations for an animation project/pitch to film and streaming studios. I cannot begin to describe how pleased we were with her Comprehensive Design sensibility; her broad spectrum business and communication style; her ability to nail the complex color design of each character while still making each one completely different from the next. It’s like she knew the subtle differences and quirks that made up each character, with little or no input from us. It was uncanny! Masami is one of the most gifted artists around and an absolute joy to work with—and I should know, having worked in advertising and the film business for over 30 years. Do yourself a favor and hire this woman!

My experience is actually not over, but so far I’ve enjoyed my time with Masami in developing and fleshing out my plush toy idea. She’s been very up front and straight forward with me about everything. We’ve worked through every step one by one and have communicated openly. I would be excited to work with her again

I was looking for an illustrator for my upcoming novel “Trapped” (horror novel) and I came across Masami. I must say, I’m really happy with the final product. Masami got into contact with me as soon as I messaged her, and she called, texted, and kept me up to speed- very professional! Highly recommend her! She was pleasant to work with! Cheers 🍻 Aaron “Trapped” will be available by mid February 👍

I cannot say enough good things about Masami as an artist, as a professional and as a person. I wrote a story about my French Canadian great grandparents going on a pilgrimage to Sainte Anne de Beaupre in Quebec and I wanted to have it illustrated with full size color illustrations. It was a complicated and sensitive project and Masami enthusiastically embraced it. Right from the beginning, Masami reached out to me on the phone so we could discuss my vision for the illustrations. She also conducted extensive research into the dress and culture of early 20th century French Canadians as well as 17th century Hurons from Quebec. She kept me informed of her progress and made sure to ask questions about what my expectations were as needed. She was the ultimate teammate on this project. In the end we had fifteen 10 x 13 full color illustrations as well as a book that is getting ready to be published as I write this review. I strongly recommend Masami for your illustration projects. I have attached some of her work so you can see for yourself.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing vary based on each project, but I am flexible and open to negotiate. I ask for half up front and half and the end.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I always talk to the customer before beginning any project to get a better sense what they need and how much time their project should take. Based off of that, we can determine a price.
