Hello, I'm Sun, a graphic designer and illustrator based in Bangkok, Thailand.

Over the past five years, I've worked as a graphic designer, creating advertising artworks and visual content for a variety of brands. While design has been my profession, illustration has always been my greatest passion and lifelong dream.

I've loved drawing since I was a child. I enjoy turning ideas and imagination into visual stories through thoughtful color palettes, layout composition, and character design. Creating illustrations allows me to express my thoughts, emotions, and the little moments that inspire me every day.

Many of my works are inspired by the things I love—my pet cats, the cartoons and films that have stayed with me, and the simple moments of everyday life. Through each illustration, I hope to share a piece of who I am and invite others into my own visual world.

Lady Routine

Lady Routine is an illustration series inspired by Lady and the Tramp. I've always felt a connection with Lady's character, and many people have told me that my curly hair reminds them of her.

That inspired me to create my own cocker spaniel character, based on Lady but reimagined with my own personality. Through this character, I illustrate my daily life, emotions, and experiences. Lady became the inspiration that encouraged me to start creating character illustrations, and she continues to be the heart of my visual storytelling.

Sherry's Retro Style

Sherry Retro Sticker is a sticker series inspired by vintage aesthetics and everyday moments. Centered around my original character, Sherry, the collection is influenced by my personal style, favorite animals, and everyday objects that reflect who I am. By combining nostalgic colors, playful expressions, and simple illustrations, I create designs that are warm, fun, and full of personality, while expressing my identity through a retro-inspired visual style.

Goodnight, You.

Goodnight, You is my first canvas painting, inspired by my cat. Although my cat sleeps all day, I painted its eyes wide open, as if it were waiting for someone to say, "Goodnight." The yellow tones represent the moonlight, while the blue background symbolizes the night sky, creating a warm and peaceful atmosphere.

Sunshine Diary

Sunshine Diary is my first watercolor pattern design, inspired by everyday life and the things I love. Through hand-painted illustrations, I transform small moments and personal interests into a warm, playful pattern that reflects my visual storytelling.

Orange Cat

Inspired by Teddy, my fluffy orange cat, this illustration captures his everyday poses and charming personality through simple, playful shapes and warm colors.

Let’s Grow Our Garden

A garden is a place where I find happiness — walking, running, sitting, and enjoying the little moments around me.

This piece was created during Paint in the Park at Chulalongkorn University’s 100th Anniversary Park. I started drawing from the sky, the garden, and the people around me, from afternoon until sunset.

This moment reminded me that growth takes time. Just like a garden, we slowly grow while chasing our dreams. Through my canvas, I found a safe space where I can express myself and create happiness.

A little date night dinner

A memory of my date nights — I have always loved spaghetti, a true pasta lover. This piece was sculpted from clay and hand-painted, inspired by the iconic spaghetti scene from Lady and the Tramp.

Through this piece, I wanted to capture the warmth, sweetness, and little moments that make memories feel special.

Dear, My fluffy soulmate

Inspired by my cat character, I transformed it into a pattern using a stitch technique. I created new elements and compositions around the theme “Dear, My Fluffy Soulmate” — a story about a cat finding its soulmate, someone who feels familiar and shares the same little world.

I placed two cats side by side, decorated with flowers and tiny paw prints to bring out a sense of sweetness, playfulness, and the special bond between them.

Cat & Wine

Wine is a drink I recently started enjoying. I created this piece after spending a relaxing moment with a glass of wine, pizza, and a movie.

That simple evening made me feel calm and comfortable in my own space. I painted the wine glass I was drinking from and my cat resting beside me — capturing a small moment of happiness during a peaceful day off.

Good Luck...

When a relationship with someone we once loved comes to an end, there comes a moment when we have to say goodbye and continue on separate paths.

Even though letting go can be painful, I still wish them happiness and hope they find joy in their own journey — even if I am no longer there beside them.

“Good luck” is not just a goodbye, but a gentle wish for someone we once cared for deeply.
