Ivy Wang is an illustrator and emerging pattern designer working as Ivywxt. She holds a Master's in Illustration from the Maryland Institute College of Art (2024) and a BA in Studio Art from Denison University (2021). Her practice centres on vibrant, character-driven illustration informed by her Chinese heritage and an interest in interactive and product-based formats.
Wang works with saturated, intentionally chaotic colour palettes to present imaginative, humour-inflected worlds. The portfolio features bold, character-driven compositions with energetic colour and strong graphic presence. Personal work frequently draws on her Chinese ethnicity and the religious culture in which she was raised, giving the work a distinctive cultural grounding.
Digital illustration. Animated GIFs and artistic product design sit alongside static pattern work as key output formats. The practice includes both character-focused illustration and decorative compositional approaches suited to pattern repeat contexts.
Editorial illustration and character-driven work for children's and stationery contexts. Collaborative project work documented with 826DC, a US children's literacy nonprofit - card illustration, box art design, and game booklet production for their story-starter card deck programme.
Educated in the United States: BA in Studio Art from Denison University (2021), followed by a Master's in Illustration at MICA (2024). Instagram bio references locations including ZJ (Zhejiang), SH (Shanghai), FL, OH (Ohio), and MD (Maryland), suggesting time split between China and the US.
Character-based surface patterns and decorative illustration compositions. The portfolio features energetic all-over designs with strong figurative subjects and an expressive, unconventional colour approach. Animation is an active dimension of the practice.
