My name is Vencho. I graduated from the Children's Picture Book Illustration at the Cambridge School of Art. Currently, I work as a full-time picture book illustrator in London, and I’m specializing in  watercolor painting. My favorite tool is a self-sharpened chopstick that I use to draw all the outlines.
 

After completing my Master's degree, I embarked on a journey to discover a creative process that truly suits me. One area in which I excel is revisiting and refining my work. While I may not achieve brilliance in a single attempt, I possess a keen ability to identify and address the flaws in my pieces. Through repetition and practice, I am constantly striving for improvement. Furthermore, I have realized that my productivity is greatly enhanced by working alongside others in a co-working space, rather than confining myself to my home or studio. Despite the need to carry a considerable amount of drawing materials during my daily commute, the advantages far outweigh any inconvenience.

​

I am immensely grateful for the friends and tutors I have encountered in the UK who have provided invaluable advice, helping me develop a drawing and working style that better suits me.
