Coco a. Lynge talks about her journey of becoming an concept artist intern at the Danish Visual Development Studio MOOD, as well as her experience as a children's book illustrator and fashion designer. Her portfolio has a range of styles from more stylized to the more realistic style she's needed to adopt at MOOD. Plus she's one of the few people who can pronounce my name correctly so that's always a bonus in my book.
