I am an illustrator and graphic designer based in Bangkok. I run a small letterpress studio where I create designs that convey soft and gentle feelings with a playful and lighthearted touch.

I believe that children are the embodiment of these qualities, so they are the main element in my illustrations. I hope that my work will remind viewers of their inner child and the importance of keeping their hearts and minds open to new experiences, just like children do.

I Wish You Bluebirds in The Spring

The artwork is inspired by a standard jazz ‘I Wish You Love’, one of my favourite songs with beautiful lyrics which all mankind should be given. The images depict each season in the each verse of the song. If the lyrics are printed in a book, as if it is a poem, I would love these images to be printed side by side with those beautiful words.

And in July A Lemonade to Cool You in Some Leafy Glade

The artwork is inspired by a standard jazz ‘I Wish You Love’, one of my favourite songs with beautiful lyrics which all mankind should be given. The images depict each season in the each verse of the song. If the lyrics are printed in a book, as if it is a poem, I would love these images to be printed side by side with those beautiful words.

I Wish You Shelter from The Storm

The artwork is inspired by a standard jazz ‘I Wish You Love’, one of my favourite songs with beautiful lyrics which all mankind should be given. The images depict each season in the each verse of the song. If the lyrics are printed in a book, as if it is a poem, I would love these images to be printed side by side with those beautiful words.

But Most of All, When Snowflakes Fall I Wish You Love

The artwork is inspired by a standard jazz ‘I Wish You Love’, one of my favourite songs with beautiful lyrics which all mankind should be given. The images depict each season in the each verse of the song. If the lyrics are printed in a book, as if it is a poem, I would love these images to be printed side by side with those beautiful words.

Tarot Cards

Inspired by Rider–Waite tarot deck, I picked 4 cards with positive meanings to turn into greeting cards.

Café Pianissimo

Pianissimo is the name of my studio, means very soft and also refers to soft notes in a song. I wanted to transport the pianissimo feeling into a picture of cafe.
