Gen
With a soft, dreamlike quality to it, Gen’s artwork revives the romanticism of classic 19th century illustration while delivering contemporary narratives in a fresh and interesting way. Her love of nature flows through her images, which are full of organic curves with gorgeous shading and captivating levels of detail. Gen’s clients really appreciate the beauty of her work.
Based in Nanning, southern China, Gen has been part of the country’s maturing comic book and graphic novel scene. She illustrates her own picture books alongside her illustration commissions and teaches illustration at college level while continuing to pursue her own artistic journey. The way plants grow and burst with vitality inspires Gen, alongside traditional Chinese architecture, Taiwanese folk music, embroidery, sculpture and jade ware. She graduated from Guangxi University with a degree in Fine Art.
