About

Hi, I’m Toma Sargsyan, an illustrator based in Belmont, Massachusetts. I’m passionate about creating clear, expressive artwork for editorial and community-focused projects—ranging from cover illustrations and posters to large-scale public installations and on-site murals.

I studied Illustration at MassArt and I enjoy learning across mediums and disciplines, including textile design through a summer course in Italy. I love collaborating with organizations and publications, and I also take pride in mentoring and supporting students through workshops, critiques, and onboarding experiences that center accessibility and inclusion.
