I am thrilled to announce that the illustrator for our July (Asia) issue is the lovely and talented Vax Liu!

I first discovered Vax’s work at a local student art show and was blown away by her eye for compostion and especially the power and strength of her line. She recently graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Communication Design from the University at Buffalo and she is definitely a rising star.

Vax read each and every piece going in to the July issue and designed a custom illustration for each one. What a thrill for our authors–the chance to see their literary vision interpreted in another medium.

Vax currently works as a freelancer in the fields of illustration, computer graphics, and web design.

Her website (where you can see more of her fine work) is http://cargocollective.com/vaxliu

I am so thrilled to be able to share her amazing work with our readers. Here’s a tiny preview–her cover design for our upcoming Asia issue:

Stay tuned for the July issue!
