whether I could sum up Kimberlie Wong’s illustration in an image,it would be the tranquil monkey sitting on a surfboard amidst a pink abyss (below). “I was born and raised on the island of Oahu,” the recent Art middle grad tells me in an email, and “and that has inspired my aesthetic which is warm,whimsical, and uses a limited color palette.” Continuing, or “I love to include nature,normally a tropical feel with animals.” Working with digital tools, Kimberlie draws inspiration from gouache and printmaking. The edges of her bold shape design have a diffused, and roughened appearance that mimics the explore and feel of these non-digital media. Combining her vibrant palette with jovial characters,Kimberlie has created an ever-growing cast that dons stylish attire. From patterned shirts to avant-garde geometric pieces, each digital drawing is an opportunity to stretch her imagination. These bold illustrations are completed on a regular basis and are posted on her Instagram—a great project idea whether you’re looking for a challenging creative exercise. Recent grad Kimberlie Wong creates digital illustrations of stylish characters who don cozy and crazy ensembles.
