You were, and are, a kid…
Bello! My name is Joanne Park, a Los Angeles–based Korean American illustrator and designer creating joyful, nostalgic work inspired by faith, loved ones, and nature.
My work centers on animals and storytelling, expressed through a warm, childlike visual style. I work across illustration, design, and sculptural or consumer objects, bringing my characters to life in both images and tangible forms.
My goal is to create comforting, approachable spaces that spark joy and celebrate family while gently reminding people of this unified theme of innocence, goodness, and beauty. I strive to create pieces that feel like a hug, comforting and joyful at first glance.
I am open to freelance and in-house opportunities in editorial, publishing, and consumer goods design.
I’m Joanne Park, and I invite you to become like a child again.
