Ross Du’s Unique Artistic Style Reflects the Vibrant Tapestry of Filipino Heritage

1

Ross Du is an illustrator and graphic designer from Manila, Philippines, known for her vibrant, culturally inspired vignettes.

Growing up influenced by illustrated books, she developed a passion for storytelling through art. Her work, described as a mix of maximalism and minimalism, often features themes of nostalgia and cultural context. She founded “Ang Manileña” to modernize Manila’s visual identity, inspired by other metropolitan art projects. Currently an illustrator at Canva, Ross enjoys projects that empower non-profits and thrives on creative collaborations.
