CREATIVE STATEMENT


Hi I'm Simon, lifestyle illustrator based in Copenhagen, Denmark. My work is deeply influenced by my upbringing in Canada, my Chinese heritage, and my connection to the LGBT community. I love creating cozy environments that evoke emotions and memories through soft, animated storytelling. To create a successful lifestyle illustration, I believe it’s essential to authentically reflect human experiences. For me, the two most important qualities of a successful illustration are emotional resonance and relatable storytelling.

Do you draw from a model or your imagination?
I primarily draw from my imagination, but I often use reference images, especially from my travels, to capture the essence of places I love.

What is your favorite activity to illustrate?
I enjoy illustrating scenes inspired by everyday life, and with my background in medical illustration, I love creating artwork around healthy living and peaceful, serene settings.

Where do you find inspiration for new people and poses?
I find inspiration in my daily experiences, travels, food, and fun moments that bring life to my illustrations.
