Jing Li es una ilustradora freelance que vive y trabaja en Pekín, China. Empezó a hacer arte a los cuatro años y se la ha vivido dibujando desde entonces. En el 2013, se mudó a los Estados Unidos para continuar sus estudios, y ahora tiene dos maestrías en Bellas Artes de Savannah College of Art and Design y Maryland Institute College of Art. Tras mudarse de regreso a China, estalló la pandemia de COVID-19, con el epicentro solo a dos horas de distancia de su hogar en Yichang. Durante el aislamiento, hizo arte para el
Washington Post sobre su vida durante la pandemia en China, humanizando la difícil experiencia. En sus otros trabajos, ha encontrado inspiración en la cultura Hutong y en la historia y la moda de su ciudad. Cuando no está trabajando, pasa tiempo con sus perros y los saca a pasear. Con su arte, Li espera dejar momentos de su vida para que otros puedan descubrirlos en los años que vienen.
