Wendie Chen is a self-taught illustrator (goblin) from Shanghai, China. She is currently rummaging for knowledge in the MFA Visual Narrative program at SVA.

Following the typical Asian kid story, Wendie loved art as a kid but followed her family’s advice to study “something more useful.” After finishing her BA in Psychology at PSU, Wendie decided that “usefulness” was overrated and she still wanted to become a “crazy” artist. Benefiting from her experience in psychology, Wendie likes to explore the impact of emotions in her work. Big emotions, small emotions, the emotions that you hid deep within a corner of your heart, the emotions that you never knew you had, the emotions that you never discovered before–Wendie wants to explore them all!
