Lys Yang (she/her), aka @sendoodz, is a self-taught Chinese American illustrator who grew up in the bay and is currently based in San Francisco, having lived in SOMA, the Mission, and east bay. She learned how to draw from Neopets tutorials and from running online MS Paint commissions on Gaiaonline.com before taking a long hiatus, returning to art during COVID as a means of soothing anxious thoughts. Her art aims to capture the feeling of people watching, bringing you in with an imagined, supersaturated color palette. She hopes her work can invite people to be curious about, and be present with, a small moment in her art.
Lys’ work ranges from window murals in the community, digital illustration, animation, polymer clay pieces, acrylic + gouache paintings, and sticker making. She has freelanced for clients like Partiful, Oddity, and Art of the Bay, in addition to being featured in art shows at Helvella Arts, Chunky LA, Tamper Room, and Sour Cherry Comics. Some of her stickers can be found in retail at Maido, Japantown SF.
