San Francisco artist Colin Zhang’s most powerful tool is not a pencil or a tablet, but his unwavering wonder at how life can unfold before our eyes.
As a child, Zhang loved science fiction movies so much so that he re-created scenes and characters from the genre in his notebooks. This pastime eventually became an obsession and then a career — and his visual machinations won the 2021 Illustrators of the Future science fiction art contest.
Zhang graduated from Sichuan Normal University with a bachelor of fine arts in 2017 and enrolled in graduate school at Academy of Art University in San Francisco shortly thereafter at the recommendation of several professors. He already had a personal interest in the university as several alumni went on to work for the “Star Wars” franchise.
Zhang’s friends encouraged him to enter the Illustrators of the Future art contest, resulting in the artist's biggest break yet.
