Illustrator

My name is Rachel Guan, I’m an illustrator based in New York. My work is primarily digital, and I strive to build a fantastical world through my illustrations. I specialize in character-focused artwork, incorporating intricate details and rich textures to create visually stunning pieces. I have a particular affinity for depicting plants, jewelry, and religious motifs, blending these classical 

elements with modern aesthetics to craft a unique artistic style.

​

Over the years, I have participated in various art markets and exhibitions, including MOCCA, AAAAH, and multiple events organized by my school. I thoroughly enjoy engaging with others, introducing my work, and sharing my creative vision. These experiences have not only helped me showcase my art but 

have also strengthened my ability to connect with audiences and potential buyers.

​

In addition to exhibitions, I have five years of experience creating private commission illustrations. I am well-versed in the commission process, from initial client discussions to delivering a final piece that meets their expectations. My ability to communicate effectively with clients allows me to understand their vision and bring it to life with precision and creativity. Through both personal projects and commissioned work, I continuously refine my skills, aiming to push the boundaries of my artistic expression.
