Christina Shek

Hello! I’m Christina, the British artist behind Kookie Pixel. I create affordable art and products that fits into your every day life.

I was born in Dundee, Scotland and grew up in a small market town in Ashbourne, England. I have lived in London and Hong Kong and am currently living in Takamatsu, Japan.

From a very young age, I had a passion for drawing and making things. I had paper dolls which I would design clothing for in all sorts of colours, shapes and patterns. I first fell in love with digital drawing in the 80’s when my dad brought home an Amiga computer. I soon became addicted to drawing Mario Brothers with a software called Paint!

I first began creating digital art in 2016 just for fun. During my career as a lingerie designer spanning 16 years, I developed my skills in graphic design, illustrations and pattern design. This ignited a passion in me to learn more about digital art.

Nowadays, I spend most days in my home studio fuelled on mugs of tea, combining my design skills and passion for creating digital art. I like to experiment with textures, shapes and colour. I draw my inspirations from nature, people, patterns, travel, and landscapes which is reflected in my work.
