ALOHA

I am Phoebe!
An award-winning illustrator working in New York and living in New Jersey.

I like to play with different media and explore whimsical imagery, subtle emotions, and an intimate inner world. I love living in the city, watching cute animal memes, playing with girl dress-up toys, and planning with Hobonichi stationery.

I am also the founder and self-publisher of an independent magazine,
Pretty Wishes, dedicated to celebrating women artists and emotional expression. 

Overall, I am trying very hard to make my life fun - in a challenging way.
