About

Jieyu Deng is a freelance illustrator/designer from China.

She graduated in illustration and received her undergraduate degree in animation. Jieyu has worked with various clients and motion/animation projects in the U.S. after graduation.

Most of her works are inspired by all the subjects around her—especially nature, her hometown, and people whom she has met. She has a background working as a graphic designer, and this influences her work as an illustrator. Jieyu's illustrations are full of clean designs, dynamic shapes, and emotion.
