I am a freelance wildlife illustrator based in Hong Kong and one of the Co-founders of Wildlife Illustrations Hong Kong (Draw Mud Spring). With my academic background in Ecology and Biodiversity, I have come to understand that art and communication are vital for nature conservation.
I use watercolor, pen and ink, and computer graphics to create stylish and educational illustrations of wildlife and nature, with a special focus on herps, fishes, and birds. I strive to produce accurate, informative, and aesthetically-pleasing artwork to promote knowledge about nature, inspire the public to appreciate our biodiversity, and to support the cause of conservation.
