Rebecca Tsien Biography

Welcome to my site!
I graduated from Parsons School of Design in New York in 1988 with a BFA in Illustration and Design.  I have always loved reading a story and trying to put just the right illustrations to it, or writing my own stories to illustrate.

When I left Parsons, computers were still a thing of curiosity.  I pretty much had to go back to school again (at nights and on weekends!) to learn that new world!  I discovered that I really, really love to draw on the computer.  It really allows me to be playful with my art. 
My husband is a musician (guitar), and my mother was a professional pianist so I've always been fascinated by musicians and love to illustrate them.  In fact, when I'm not doing art, I can probably be found recording my own music (mostly acoustic ballads). You can take a listen at www.soundcloud.com/rebeccatsien.

After working for several years in publishing, as an art director, I am happy to be back to what I love the most...illustration.  I hope that you enjoy my site, and please feel free to contact me at my email address.
