Bonghyun Shin is an illustrator based in Seattle, where she lives with her husband, two lovely children and a dog. She was born and raised in South Korea and has a Master of Art in architecture and interior design from Hongik University of South Korea.

She loves to use various skills that combine bold lines, vibrant colors, and rough textures to create her unique style. These help to enhance and create a greater depth of meaning behind the feel of her pieces.

She had experience to teach art for kids which inspired her passion and deeper understanding of children’s perspective.

She enjoys making adorable characters and pays particular attention to displaying their emotions. Her focus on facial expressions and illustrious settings will immerse her readers into her world.

When she is not drawing, she is walking, cooking, reading, and playing with her dog Bella.
