Kikue’s hand-drawn illustrations have appeared in dozens of magazines, books, and web media. She finishes her work digitally using Adobe Photoshop on an Apple computer. 

She has published one book in English and Japanese:
Postcards from a Bilingual Family ー 11years of Japanese- American Family (IBC Publishing)

She has published two books in Japanese:
Yuru Eco: Easy, Economical and Fun Eco Living (Kadokawa)
Etsuraku Bilingual Parenting — Bilingual, Bicultural Parenting of the Children of the Future (Shufu to Seikatsusha)

Since 2011, she has been contributing a biweekly illustrated essay called “Postcards from a Bilingual Family” (Asahi Shimbun) for the “Asahi Weekly” newspaper.

Kikue, her American husband, and two children enjoy an eco-friendly and semi-vegetarian lifestyle. Her interests are folk arts and crafts, making Japanese shimekazari rope decorations, knife sharpening for family and friends, hiking in the hills around her home, and entertaining her two cats.
