Feifei Ruan Brings the Dragon to Life

Straight from the scrolls of legend and the future of fantasy, meet the artist behind our most mythical collab yet.

Feifei Ruan is a Chinese illustrator and visual storyteller with a style she describes as “Eastern classical to science fiction and fantasy” (In other words: stunning). Born in Shenzhen and now based in LA, her work lives where heritage meets imagination, think elegant brushstrokes, epic energy, and stories that linger long after you’ve looked away.

Her dragon? Yeah, it’s not just a vibe, it’s a whole portal. Rooted in centuries of symbolism, brought to life with soul, movement, and just a hint of cosmic power. You can feel the history in every line. And somehow, it still feels brand new.

Feifei grew up surrounded by Cantonese flavors, family dinners, and quiet moments that sparked big dreams. Her favorite? Stir-fried rice vermicelli with shrimp, egg, and vegetables—虾仁炒米粉—a dish as balanced and comforting as her art. That kind of warmth shows up in every piece she creates.

This dragon isn’t just a design—it’s a memory, a myth, and a mirror. Look closer. It might just look back.

Luis Pinto Brings the Hummingbird to Life

Part burst of joy, part cultural icon, this hummingbird was made to move, and Luis Pinto was made to draw it.

Luis Pinto is a Mexican illustrator and designer whose work never sits still. It’s color in motion. Feeling with flair. A little surreal, a lot expressive. Born in Mexico, he blends tradition with play and concept with soul.

The hummingbird is one of the most iconic figures in Mexican visual culture, bright, fast, and full of meaning. You’ve seen it on tiles, in embroidery, maybe in a memory. Under Luis’s hand, it becomes something new: a flash of movement, a layered story, a celebration of where he’s from and how he sees the world.

His inspiration runs deep—folk stories, graphic novels, pop culture, daily life—and yeah, even comfort food (Chimichangas? Always a yes). That same warmth shows up in every line.

This hummingbird isn’t just decoration. It’s culture in motion. And Luis gave it wings.

Muhammed Sajid Brings the Tiger to Life

Vivid, precise, and full of power, this tiger doesn’t just appear. It arrives.

Based in Bangalore, Indian illustrator Muhammed Sajid is known for bold color and surreal, emotionally layered worlds. His work blends the traditional and the futuristic—village memories, graphic novel energy, and a visual style that’s always his own.

The tiger is one of the most iconic figures in Indian culture. A symbol of courage, strength, and national pride. You’ll find it everywhere, from temples to tapestries. Under Muhammed’s hand, it becomes something striking and modern. Alive with motion, rich with meaning.

His process moves between digital and analog, pulling from everyday life, color, and texture. Like ilayada, the sweet Kerala dish he grew up with, there’s something familiar in the layers, and something unexpected too.

This tiger isn’t just a symbol. It’s presence, reimagined. And Muhammed gave it form.

Asia Kang Brings the Magpie to Life

Bright-eyed and full of meaning, this magpie doesn’t just land, it stays with you. And Asia Kang knew exactly how to draw it.

Asia Kang is a Korean-American illustrator and designer based in the Bay Area. Her work is thoughtful and deeply felt: gentle textures, layered detail, and a stillness that resonates. She works in gouache, colored pencil, and digital tools, capturing the quiet rituals that give life its warmth.

The magpie is woven through Korean culture; it’s a sign of good news and a symbol of connection. You’ll find it in folk stories, songs, and family superstitions. In Asia’s hands, it becomes a quieter kind of strength: reflective and grounded, like a flicker of care caught mid-flight.

Her inspiration lives in the everyday: sunlight in tea, thrifted ceramics, and her mom’s kimchi jjigae, always simmering when the day felt too heavy. That sense of comfort carries through everything she creates.

This magpie isn’t just a symbol. It’s memory, care, and meaning. And Asia gave it flight.

Jumbo Jan Brings the Monkey to Life

From the heart of Thai culture to the pulse of modern illustration, discover the artist behind our most spirited collab yet.

Jumbo Jan is a Thai illustrator with a style that bursts in bold color, manga energy, and expressive motion. Trained in design but led by passion, her work balance’s structure and imagination, discipline, and flow.

In Thai culture, monkeys carry the energy of agility, wit, and joy—and Jan channels that spirit through every line. Her monkey radiates motion and vibrancy, a lively emblem of celebration that invites you to smile back.

She also finds inspiration in the warmth of hotpot, her family’s favorite comfort meal. A bubbling pot at the center, everyone gathered close, flavors blending slowly into something unforgettable. That sense of community and creativity shows up in every piece she creates.

This monkey isn’t just a design. It’s culture in motion. And Jan brought it to life.
