Jing Wei
Minimalist illustrations from Chinese-born Brooklyn based Illustrator / printmaker Jing Wei. Jing Wei has worked with clients such as New York Times, NPR, Giant Robot, American Airlines and Time Out NY.
“I had a magnetic drawing board that I was obsessed with as a kid. It had a handle, so I would carry it around everywhere. Whenever a family friend came over, I would make them sit while I drew horrendous portraits of them.” Jing Wei on her childhood art work interviewed by Christopher Auger-Domínguez.
Some of Jing Wei’s prints are available to purchase here on her website.
I love your alphabet, it’s so clever how you use the positive and negative.
Very very cool. Really loving the textures in her works.
Thanks for the comments. Yeah the alphabet is very cleverly done, think it is a wood cut. Texture to the colours gives a really nice crafted feel. In some of her pieces the sharp straight lines really jump out against the curved, it’s a very subtle but effective technique.
