Hi, I'm Haru. I turn tangled topics into bold, friendly pictures people actually want to read — one panel at a time.
I'm a freelance visual explainer who's spent the last eight years drawing the things words struggle to say — for magazines, startups, schools and curious humans on the internet.
My happy place is the messy middle of a hard idea, where a few bold shapes and a wink of colour suddenly make everything click. No jargon. No clip-art. Just clear, warm, slightly cheeky pictures.
Cover art and spot illustrations that make readers stop scrolling and start reading.
Data and processes turned into one clear, bold picture anyone can follow in seconds.
Swipe-friendly story sets for social — a whole idea, panel by panel, with a punchline.
Looping animated explainers, plus hands-on sessions teaching teams to draw their thinking.
You send the messy idea — notes, links, a voice memo. The weirder the better.
I find the one clear story inside it and rough out the panels in pencil.
Bold shapes, friendly faces, a tidy palette — two rounds of tweaks included.
Print, web, social, motion — packaged in every size you need to publish.
Tell me the topic and the vibe. I'll send back a rough sketch and a friendly quote within two days.
