Joyce Qianye 千葉 | Digital Illustrator

I'm an illustrator who has been drawing since I was very young. My work blends Eastern aesthetics with the anime culture I grew up on — original characters, quiet worlds, and deep emotions.

The long story

Ever since I can remember, I was drawing. Paintbrushes, pencil cases, the margins of homework books — anything that could hold a line became my canvas.

At 11 I discovered digital art and never looked back. I studied illustration from many resources, spent years learning everything from traditional composition to modern character design.

I am happy to be a freelance illustrator, publishing original pieces on this site and sharing more work on Instagram. In the portfolio there are 100% original characters that began in my sketchbook and fan art as well.
