Weston Wei uses his enigmatic brushstrokes for a Wall Street Journal commission.

Weston's latest editorial is a visual journey accompanying an excerpt from American writer Daniel Handler’s (better known as Lemony Snicket) new book.

The piece delves into the poignant journey of a character navigating life with vivid visual hallucinations.

His composition isolates the character and is an invitation to step into his shoes.

“I found it super interesting learning how the different islands had such a big impact on the features of each animal, such as the shape and colour of the tortoises shells. Also that there is a type of finch that drinks blood, Vampire Finches!”
