Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Happy October #kidlitartpostcard day!

I'm Amber, a Malaysian Chinese illustrator based in Iceland! I imbue bits of imagination into the mundane everyday life.

Open for teen & YA projects! Especially creepy or existential ones.

I’m working on a character called Konni. He’s a simple Icelandic man trying his best in life. Stay tuned to his story of mediocrity.
