My name is Jungmin Lee. I am an illustrator, born in South Korea and based in Los Angeles.

What inspires my creative process are childhood, dreams, family, writing, and folk art. My work is about experimenting with found and mixed media, sharing stories from memories,
and making 3d objects with hands. After graduation, I would like to work in in-house advertisements, freelance editorials, publications, stage sets, and education.
