Hi, I’m Mopo.

I’m a Chinese freelance illustrator based in Germany.

My work focuses on editorial illustration and picture book storytelling, with a strong interest in emotions, everyday experiences, and quiet visual narratives. I enjoy turning subtle feelings and ordinary moments into images that feel warm, reflective, and alive.

My Projects

• Ongoing | A Better Day, Oh! My Teeth, Jumping Dopamine 2026
• Completed | Self-Talk as Night Falls, Jumping Dopamine, Dopamine Doses, Cozy Time

Education

• 2024 | MA, HfK Bremen
• 2021 | BA, Dalian Polytechnic University

Media

In my practice, I work across both traditional and digital media.

• Colored Pencil: For picture book illustration, I usually work in colored pencil, which allows me to create images with a more delicate, intimate, and tactile quality.
• Digital (Procreate): For editorial illustration, I often work digitally, which offers the flexibility and efficiency needed for commercial projects and revisions.

Collaboration

I’m open to collaborations in editorial, publishing, and selected commercial projects.
