Lisa Wee

Lisa Wee – Designer

Hello, I'm Lisa, a children's illustrator passionate about celebrating the quirks and quint of children through my colourful illustrations.

Overview

Hello! I'm Lisa Wee, a children illustrator deeply dedicated to championing diversity and inclusion through my artwork. With a profound understanding of the significance of representation, I am driven to create illustrations that authentically reflect and celebrate the rich tapestry of our society, ensuring that every individual feels seen, valued, and embraced.


I've been fortunate to collaborate with a diverse range of clients, including Celebrity Top Chef Kristen Kish, MITKids (an imprint of Candlewick), Babybug and Ladybug magazine, Storymix_UK, Mighty Kind Magazine, Tool of the Mind, and more.


Each project has provided me with invaluable opportunities to further my mission of promoting inclusivity and respect through illustration.


I am open for commissions, eager to embark on new creative journeys and bring visions to life that uplift and inspire. Let's work together to create illustrations that not only captivate but also celebrate the beautifully diverse world we live in.

I am blown away by Lisa's illustrations. This is my first book and, with her illustrations and design, it has come together even better than I imagined. Thank you so much! :)
