Hey there! My name is Vyolet Jin, I'm a Chinese Illustrator based in New York!  



I completed my MFA degree at SVA’s MFA Illustration Visual Essay program, where I learned to define my own style. I like to break the rules of traditional drawing to create fun, energetic, and colorful illustrations.
