  • Biography
    Weston is a Chinese illustrator and now lives in New York City. He describes himself as a 55% extrovert and 45% introvert, which is why he chose to live in the most crowded city in the world but spent lots of time in his room and drawing alone. Weston’s visual practices focus on communicating stories and emotions. His arts aim to build an immediate and direct emotional connection with his audience. He is influenced by surrealist art, fashion styling, and pop culture.
