THE PAINTFUL'S LAW
| aka YK | Illustrator | Graphic Design |
“I am surprisingly PAINTFUL.”
A Full-time dreamer and a part-time illustrator and graphic designer based in Hong Kong. I have also spent around six years in different local magazines, worked as an online reporter and visual designer before turning into a freelancer. Consequently, I found myself more into visuals than words.
After quitting my job, I started to publish my works on an illustration column in MPWeekly, a local printed magazine in my home town, for a year. I have also participated in local book projects to create hand-made miniature-illustration-books for kids and adults. Moreover, I worked for local brands on rebranding projects, helping them to create posters, redesign logos, packaging and name cards.
Recently, my husband and I started up a cultural project and created a brand to promote an old oriental game - "Tin Kau", in order to inherit Hong Kong's tradition among the younger generation.
In my leisure time, I love to research about occult, religions, myths and mysterical stories. These influence and inspire my creation.
