Shang-Te Ted Chen

Hi! I’m Shang-Te Chen, but you can call me Ted. I am an illustration artist specializing in cute picture book styles with subtle textures. I was originally born in Taiwan and received my master's degree in Interaction design from California College of the Arts. I discovered my passion for creating adorable and joyful illustrations that spread positivity and bring smiles to people’s faces.

I spent my life 70% in America and 30% in Taiwan. 65% right brain and 35% left brain indicated I have an artistic free spirit.

I spend most of my time daydreaming and making Illustrations. I love everything related to art, movies, and cute animals.

Award and Recognition:

Song of Strife Creation Fest 2024 - Creative Prize
