hello :D i'm jade tan, a malaysian-chinese illustrator based in switzerland.

my work often revolves around themes of nostalgia, identity and culture. i use my art as an outlet for self expression and a way to communicate.

i enjoy using a wide range of media for my art (from digital paintings to pencil sketches), as seen in my portfolio.

at the moment, i find myself returning to analog materials (ink / pencil / color pencils on paper).

i'm ready to bring your ideas to life :)
