Every portrait starts with a conversation.

Tell me about the person and what the portrait is for. That’s the part that matters.

What i make

Two ways to give something painted.

Same hand, same style, same artist. Portraits are painted on paper over two weeks. Cards are built from hand-drawn elements you assemble yourself, a one-of-a-kind portrait that resembles whoever it's for.

ABOUT

I'm Jun-Yi. I trained as a graphic designer and illustrator, then I started painting people. I've created hundreds of portraits since 2012, and a lot of cards along the way.

I capture the essence of a person in my signature, minimalistic yet highly detailed style. I paint from photographs, but a portrait is also the conversation that comes before. Tell me about the person and what the portrait is for. That's the part that matters.
