I'm on the cover of Ricepaper Magazine! Thanks Melissa and Rob for the amazing art direction. This season's Ricepaper was a Food Issue. Oh man, my favourite subject! I throughly enjoyed working on this project.
Back of the magazine.
This was an original. We decided to switch the background to red since Ricepaper's other issues were darker colours as well.
Check out their website. I'm so excited to have my illustration on their website. Their magazine is so awesome! Ricepaper is an Asian-Canadian culture magazine from Vancouver. Read about exotic food imports from China, learn about eating local in Canada, history of Chinese restaurants and an article on Sursur Lee (with his famous Singaporean Style Slaw recipe - I was fortune of trying this on my birthday 3 years ago. Man, I will never forget its epic taste)!
Here are some rejected roughs. I was happy for their choice because it was the one I wanted to paint the most.
Lastly, a news! I will be at

This year, I have wicked
MAGIC MUGS with my monsters. How is it magic? Like so:
At first, it looks like a normal black mug. But when you pour hot water (or coffee)...
A painting start to appear!
Tada~! Enjoy your hot tea with Hyein Lee painting, only while it's hot.
I made 2 designs, 3 mugs each. There are very limited quantity, so hurry to get yours. :D
