Q

How and where did your journey as an artist begin?

Jeanie Chang: Funny enough, I never drew much as a kid. I mostly loved to learn how to make things. Then I got really into pixel art and digital painting in middle school. I started my higher education in 3D modeling but changed course because Visual Development was more flexible as a career choice. I was probably also greatly influenced by how my school had much more to offer in terms of education in the illustration department VS 3D.
