About
My name is Catherine Chow and I am an illustrator graduating from Otis College of Art and Design in May 2021 with a BFA in Communication Arts. I have developed my professional background as I collaborated and worked with the community throughout the years and earned 2 Congressional awards. My skills range from traditional sketching to digital. As I am passionate and inspired by the world around me, I am determined to create and bring stories to life through captivating visuals.

Etharia Character Designs

  • Etharia
    Etharia is a world-building Discord server where people can create their own nations, histories, and cultures. My project focuses on anime and manga, so I decided to create my own anime by designing personified countries based on the server, drawing illustrations and stories, and making cosplays. Throughout the project, I asked my boyfriend (the server admin) and the interested members to send me requests on designing their nations and character information. This section is where I made a book of Etharia's personified nations and how they are represented.

Etharia Illustrations

  • Bellagio
    Le Mousquetaire et La Servante is a Vizelian (my nation's) folklore version of Romeo and Juliet. This story is about a Vizelian musketeer, Azelio's unrequited love for the Princess's maid, Indí. It took place during the Vizelian Revolution when the working class became disillusioned with the royalty and elite, as the poor struggled and the wealthy ignored them as they continued to live through a life of luxury. Indí, who was very devoted to the Vizelian Princess, sacrificed her life to the angry peasants, as the maid helped her escape during the palace revolts.
