Wendy, an illustrator from Taiwan, is now based in Nottingham, UK. She graduated from Nottingham Trent University with distinction in MA Illustration, and is represented by The Bright Agency, specializing in children’s picture books and licensing.

Although she was born with a rare congenital disease, which leads to a calcium deficiency in her bones, and faces physical challenges with an electric wheelchair, she never gives up on pursuing her dreams to create and aspires to bring joy, warmth, and brighten up people’s days through art. She overcomes her physical disabilities and studies for illustration MA and pursues her dreams in England by herself.

Her artwork has received many illustration awards, including being highly commended for The Macmillan Prize and longlisted for The World Illustration Award, etc. 

溫蒂是一名自由插畫師也是英國知名插畫經紀公司The Bright Agency簽約之插畫家。2023年畢業於英國諾丁漢特倫特大學插畫系碩士,目前旅居英國。

雖然她患有先天性成骨不全症,身形較為矮小出外需以電動輪椅代步,但她從不放棄創作,希望能以繽紛的色彩帶給周圍的人溫暖與希望。在獲得教育部留學獎學金的機會下,克服身體上的障礙獨自赴英攻讀插畫。

溫蒂不僅舉辦過多場個展與出版過兒童繪本外也獲得多項國際插畫獎項的殊榮。她的畫風童趣生動同時也帶有溫暖與療癒的力量,創作靈感大多來自生活中的人事物,用插畫記錄生活中的美好時刻。希望能用藝術幫助他人,散播色彩並分享快樂。

‘’成就不在於你贏了誰,而是突破原本的自己並給人帶來希望與啟發‘’
