I really like your Woody Guthrie drawing and handwritten type. Woody, and his son, Arlo, are two of my favourite musicians. That and you did a very well job.

Thank you so much @go-first-fallen-blog!

Featured illustrations from Ileana Soon

As a child, I grew up in a small seaside town in Borneo, Malaysia, and spent my formative university years in Australia before making my way to Los Angeles where I currently live and work. The bulk of my work revolve around the themes of dreams and adventures, based in part on my experiences growing up beside a jungle, and of later traveling the world.

Some magazine covers I designed for my version of Annie set in 1994!

Had a tonne of fun mashing alot of references from that year, as well as making some jokes (that you might understand if you grew up in the 90s)

Hello! I realised that I have yet to post any images from my grad project featuring a redesign of Annie the musical (set in 90s New York). So...... here is an image, and hopefully I'll be able to post more soon in the coming month :)

In the Name of Research – Ileana Soon

Whilst researching this concept of what it means to call a place a home, I chanced upon stories of scientists surviving for months on end in the harshest climates in pursuit of their work. Inspired by this, I wanted to explore what ships and temporary tents mean to these brave souls, amidst their work.

Prints from Tiny Homes available here.

A brand new artist interview just went live on the Light Grey Blog! This one is with Ileana Soon, an illustrator/designer living and working out of Los Angeles – she gives us an inside peek into her work, process, and her love of traveling.

I absolutely love doing master-copies. I find it to be the most effective way of studying color, storytelling, composition and lighting. Here is one from Fight Club :)
