Co.Hama Co.Hama/ Tomo Kohama
Designer, Photographer and Artist/ Sewing Instractor

Born and raised in Japan. Open for all ages. :)

Inspired by her mom, she started sewing when she was five years old. After graduating from Santa Ana College, as a Fashion Design and Merchandising major, Tomo started working in the fashion industry internationally. Early 2015 saw the beginning of her “spotlight blog”, highlighting local artisans and their textiles across the globe. Her inspiration comes from traveling to a wide variety of countr

ies, meeting local people. In her words, “Travel is a huge part of my life. Experiencing cultures of local people through knowing their standards and backgrounds, inspires me as an artist.”

Recently, Co.Hama DIY workshop is held in Orange County in California, using multi type of textiles and needle works.

Last Sunday I visited in Huntington Beach with my lovely salsa family.

The tree which I planted/painted 🎨on that wall 5 years ago, it’s still there and keep growing. 🍃🤗 I was so excited that finally I took my girl ✨
When you swipe left, you will see the process how I drew this mural 5 years ago. I had so much fun climbing up the ladder every day. 😆
