Jovis is an illustrator based in Hong Kong and Taiwan. She graduated from the School of Communication at Hong Kong Baptist University with a major in Media Arts, and holds a Master’s degree in Children’s Literature from National Taitung University.
Her creative practice spans children’s picture books, editorial illustration, and personal art projects. In her collaborations with children’s and educational organisations, she builds warm and vibrant visual worlds; while in her personal art series, she explores the subtle interplay between daily life, memory, and imagination— wandering softly between reality and fantasy. A granular texture and a warm, colourful aesthetic characterise her digital illustrations, weaving stories that blend personal experiences with urban landscapes.
In addition to illustrating children’s picture books, she has also written and illustrated her own works, including the AR interactive picture book “The Next Station is....” and her graduate project, “Days and Nights in Hong Kong” — a pop-up book series that received the Gold Award in the Book Printing (Hardcover) category at the 22nd Hong Kong Digital Printing Awards.
Her collaborators include the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), Black & White, Ming Pao, National Taiwan Normal University, Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui, Sesame Publication, and Taiwan Ebook Service. Among them, her illustrated book “Nadima2”, created in collaboration with UNHCR, was longlisted for the 21st “Top Ten Book Picks” Awards (Primary School Category).
Jovis believes that behind every person and moment lies a story waiting to be seen with tenderness— and illustration is her way of letting those quiet stories shine once again.
