I was greatly honored to be awarded 2 Silver medals and one Judges’ Picks award from theSecond Greater China Illustration Awards - an award covering Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau and Mainland China. It’s my first time winning a professional award in Hong Kong and it really means a lot to be recognized by my own country! Thank you Society of Illustrators Hong Kong and all the judges.
Also, big big THANKS to these great people, I wouldn’t be who I am today without you guys-
-AD Soojin Buzelli for commissioning “Emerge” which was awarded Silver medal in the “Editorial and Books” category. Soojin was also the AD who took a chance and gave me my first job back in 2009!
-AD Corinne Myller for the great collaboration on “Windbeast” which was awarded Judges’ Pick Award!
-My secondary school art teacher Eileen Tsang who steered me back to art when I almost gave it up.
-My RISD portfolio teacher Chris Buzelli who taught me everything I know now being an illustrator and a decent person.
-My very supportive parents who could have bought a couple Ferrari but instead sent me to art school.
-All my mentors, friends and followers!
AND— 2 pieces were selected into Communication Arts Annual 53!! Congratulations to their AD Megan Scherer and Corinne Myller!
Thanks for reading!
