Biography

Hi there, I'm a detail-oriented illustrator with a heart for storytelling.

I specialize in character-focused digital illustrations with expressive emotions and clean, narrative-driven compositions. With a passion for visual storytelling, I love bringing characters to life — especially middle-grade and young adult stories.

Whether you're looking to capture key moments in your book or create memorable visuals for your characters, I’d love to help shape your story through art. I work in black-and-white line art or full color, depending on your needs, and I’m always open to collaborative feedback.

Previous experience, degrees, and qualifications

My previous experience is teaching (educational field—I'm a non-formal schooling teacher actually). As a side job, I open commission of digital drawing and the customers said they were satisfied.
I graduated from college in 2021.
I'm well enough in working with software such as Microsoft (especially Word, Powerpoint, Excel), Corel Draw, Procreate, and Ibispaint.

Interests and hobbies

Interest: illustration drawing (okay in both traditional and digital technics), music things, teaching field, languages (fond of studying grammar of English and Korean languages that I'm still learning by myself), writing.
Hobbies: drawing, painting, singing, playing a guitar, writing song and lyric, writing fiction.

How I'd describe my personality in two sentences

I'm happy to grow being like this—being an introvert who loves peace while doing its definition through making art and music. Even though I'm hard to myself occasionally, I thank her for not pleasing people, for allowing her to grow, for fighting negative vibes in daily life—this is hard tho, for staying more confident, for accepting herself, for being a responsible adult, for being there each time her family needs her to be, and for else that help her——become a better human.

How I'd describe my approach to my work

I fully put my effort on it and I call it a dedication. About illustration matters, it may sound strange to say this by own self, but I feel I was born with thick artistic blood that I do it all my life. It is one reason I can love making art. I can kill the solitude by creating visual arts that satisfy me and maybe somebody else. One thing is I'm creating art because I love doing that. Wholly, really.
