Honee (pronounced like "Han-E") has been a visual storyteller since early childhood. Art has always been her first language and a primary bridge between her and the world, wherever she went. She was born in Massachusetts and raised in South Korea and different parts of America before settling in New York to study illustration at Pratt Institute and become a picture book designer. As of 2020, she has now started another journey as an illustrator in London with her lovely husband.
Honee has an exceptional love for stories that help kids explore their emotions and surroundings better. She aims to convey the charm of it all under a careful examination of the world's historical, cultural, and social aspects. She continues to learn, unlearn, and challenge her creative habits to tell stories of all types.
Honee is represented by Christy T. Ewers at The CAT Agency.
