Kim Anderson is an illustrator, artist and writer.
What’s new?
My comic, ‘Where r u really from?’ explores my personal experience of growing up as a mixed-race Māori and Singaporean Chinese kid. This comic is included in Everything that moves, moves through another, an anthology about the mixed-race experience by Jennifer Cheuk.
Everything that moves is published by 5ever books. Purchase your copy here.
I love creating fun, cartoony visuals and illustrations for events, celebrations and bespoke commissions. My process is transparent and collaborative, so you always know what you’re getting and for how much. If you’re an organisation, agency, business, researcher or individual looking for engaging illustrations, let’s chat!

What I offer
Illustration can help spread a message, summarise information, and commemorate a special occasion.
That’s where I come in.
-
For conferences, workshops, talks, PR events, brand activations and more who are looking for long-lasting impact. I illustrate presentations or ideas live for your guests to experience and take home with them. Give your attendees the gift of visual notes, or even bespoke guest portraits. Here’s how live illustration can benefit your next event.

Communicating science concepts and research in a clear and impactful way is undeniably important, but it has its challenges. As an illustrator, I can bring your research to life, making it easier to understand and digest, extending its reach to wider audiences. As a disabled creative, I particularly enjoy working on projects that reflect or benefit the disabled community. Get in touch and let me know what you’re working on. I can also provide quotes for funding proposals.

You’ve got a great piece of writing, but it’s just that… a block of text. Illustrations add extra depth, meaning and emotion to an editorial piece, from articles and annual reports, to presentations and newsletters. I can illustrate a one-off piece or a series of images that make people want to stay and read.
-
Looking for something memorable for your next celebration? I can create illustrated stationery, favours and mementos for weddings or big events of all kinds that uniquely reflects you or your relationship. Or if you’re looking for something that can double as entertainment AND a gift, I offer live portrait illustration for your guests which they can take home at the end of the night. Whatever the option, bespoke illustration isn’t just something “a bit different” - it’s a personal keepsake that you and your guests can treasure for years to come.

Have a poster, t-shirt design, brand, window display, birthday portrait, or other bespoke illustration project you want to bring to life? Get in touch and let’s see what we can make!
I write, too!
Writing has been a big part of my life and continues to frame a lot of the work I do. Starting out with blog posts, I’ve continued to explore personal themes of identity and culture through zines, essays and my Substack newsletter, Take out books.
