Illustrator James Ng at steampunk art exhibition.
 

Profile

James Ng (pronounced Ing) was born in Hong Kong, where he spent most of his childhood drawing monsters and robots and moving between the Eastern and Western world.

James is mostly known for Imperial Steam & Light, his Chinese Steampunk series, but he also has a wide range of styles that extend into fantasy, sci-fi, comic narratives and even advertising.

Having spent the recent years traveling between New York, London, Vancouver, California and Korea for various exhibitions and award shows, he is back in Hong Kong to focus on his own series. James has plans to develop his artwork into a comic book and would love to hear your comments and criticism.
