late-20s • (they/them)
I'm BONNIE, a first-generation Chinese-Cambodian-American. We're mainly known as an illustrator, graphic designer, and music producer.My childhood was marked by being the odd one out. I enjoyed playing videogames (shout-out to Earthbound, The World Ends With You, and Solatorobo), fiddling around with RPG Maker XP, and making songs in MIDI form through AnvilStudio.A lot of my personal work nowadays explores themes of psychoanalysis and mental health, queerness and activism, and my Southeast Asian identity. Feel free to chat with me about linguistics, world history, and physics!In my spare time, I like to learn K-pop choreography, do freestyle dance, expand my cooking skills, collecting playing card decks, and sing in the car.

For art, I use CLIP STUDIO PAINT PRO and a Wacom Intuos Pro Large. For design, I use Adobe's Creative Cloud — mainly Illustrator for vector work and After Effects for motion graphics. For music, I use FL Studio.

It has been 3 years of me being asked this question, but unfortunately my answer is still "currently no"! I'm still refining my skills so I can eventually offer quality commissions.
