Su is an illustrator and graphic designer based in Antwerp, Belgium, focusing on picture book illustration.
She works with traditional techniques and mixed media to create immersive, narrative-driven worlds shaped by atmosphere, emotion, texture, and composition. She is currently developing several picture books and is eager to collaborate with publishers to bring meaningful stories into beautifully illustrated books.
Alongside illustration, she enjoys observational drawing, which is an important part of her creative practice and development. To see some of her process and her most recent work, please take a look at Instagram.
She also works in branding, packaging, and print design, combining strong conceptual thinking with a keen eye for detail. She holds an MA in Graphic Design from London College of Communication and has many years of experience working across agencies and design studios in Istanbul, London, and Antwerp.
When Su is not working in her studio, she can be found travelling with her sketchbook, photographing the interesting details she notices in everyday life, painting with her 2-year old daughter, making ceramics, or visiting contemporary art exhibitions.
Su is available for children’s book projects, editorial illustration, design work, and personal commissions such as birth cards, wedding invitations and drawing family portraits.
