With a fashion design
background, Wai has an
affinity with clothing and
the female form. She has
worked extensively in
fashion and beauty, for
magazines, packaging,
books and advertising.
Training
Wai studied fashion
(State Finalist - Smirnoff International Fashion
Awards 1992), but her
passion for drawing led
her to a career in
illustration, which has now
spanned over 15 years.
Approach
Wai's illustrations are
always sketched on
paper first and refined
meticulously, then placed
into Illustrator for colour,
and Photoshop for shading.
Style
Elegant composition and
a harmonious colour
palette, with every detail
refined and polished,
Wai's style is timeless.

I worked with Wai to create a series of fashion illustrations for the packaging of a product line. She is delightful to work with and her process is very efficient. Wai's illustration style is unique and memorable and the end result of this project was stunning. I would hire her again in a heartbeat.
