About

Hi there! I'm a comic artist from Sichuan, China, now calling Los Angeles my home. With over 17 years of experience, I've had the joy of bringing entire projects to life - from sketching and inking to coloring and weaving stories. My early work was heavily inspired by Japanese Manga, but after working with French publishers, I tweaked my style to better fit the European market. Now, I'm super excited to dive into the world of Kickstarter and share my creations with you all!
