Wendy Wong
“Freelance illustrator originally from Manchester, now based in London. Wendy's work is quite graphic, with bold lines and colors. The simplest way to describe Wendy's work is probably adult things, drawn in a childish format. She finds drawing quite cathartic, so sometimes it's funny and a little low brow and sometimes it's sad. ”
