About

Hiya, I'm Izzy!
I am a mixed Chinese-American artist based in the SF Bay Area, with a love for lush nature scenes and tender, emotional storytelling. I primarily work as an animator with a focus on stop motion and analog techniques. I'm also a silkscreen and risograph printmaker!In my free time I can be found cooking something up in the kitchen, powerlifting, or thinking about koalas. I hope you are thinking about them, too.I'm open to custom animation work and offer design & print services for both apparel and risograph prints. If you'd like to work on something together, please email me at:

I created all visual assets for the MV(puppet fabrication, stop motion, animation, compositing, etc.) Structure of the video follows the original MV by Sasuke Haraguchi.

two paths cross in the aftermath to form their first human bonds since it all began
One believes they can put an end to this mess,
the other thinks they are responsible for it all."A self-published, serialized comic currently available only in print, with plans to expand into a web series in the future. Chapters 1 and 2 can be found as riso printed zines.
