Welcome to my site

Hello and welcome!I'm KochiKaze, a German illustrator with a love for expressive, stylized artwork—from anime-inspired pieces to more diverse creative directions.Over time, my portfolio has grown to include not just vibrant character illustrations, but also commissions for books, manga, profile pictures, banners, apparel designs, and more. Whether it's playful or emotional, every piece I create aims to tell a story and leave a lasting impression.Along the way, some of my works have been recognized in multiple art contests and even featured in the printed Ghost of Yotei Fan Artbook—small milestones that continue to inspire me on my artistic journey.While my roots lie in anime, I’ve expanded my style to explore new artistic paths—without ever losing the spark that got me started.My long-term dream? To work professionally in the gaming or anime industry and bring characters and worlds to life for a wider audience.Feel free to look around, get inspired, and maybe even say hi!– KochiKaze
