GWEN COCO WITH PETER YUILL
Gwen Coco (Gwyneth Soriano) is a Hong Kong-based illustrator, designer and cartoonist who’s art has populated book illustrations, clothing and marketing visuals be it for small or large studio companies. Her relatable comic strips and doodles warm the hearts of many and in most cases, can cause a giggle or two.
Through her penciling and ink work, Gwen turns every piece of art into a bold narrative. When she’s not drawing, you’ll find her cooking up a jazzy taco skillet, killing reps in the gym or playing guitar after a long day.

通過她的鉛筆和墨水作品,格溫將每一件藝術品都變成了大膽的敘事。當她不畫畫時,她可能會在墨西哥弄玉米捲,她可能在健身房裡或在漫長的一天後彈吉他。
