About

Hi there! I’m Jade, a Concept Artist passionate about designing immersive worlds that tell a story. 😊

I started in Film and Stage Set Design in South Korea, where I learned the art of “spatial storytelling” by building real-world environments. This experience gives me a deep understanding of structural logic and narrative flow, which I now bring into my digital work for games and film.

I love blending my traditional pencil drawing roots with a modern digital toolkit, including Photoshop, Blender, SketchUp, Clip Studio Paint, and Procreate. Whether I’m working on high-fidelity realism or charming stylized art, I approach every project with a proactive spirit and a smile!

I’m particularly excited by “beautifully grotesque” aesthetics and thrive in collaborative teams where we can evolve ideas together.

Actively seeking Concept Art opportunities starting June 2026. I am open to both full-time and project-based roles!
Let’s create something unforgettable!
