Anne Benjamin is the founder and principal designer of Mok Duk custom invitations. A Chicago native, Anne’s creative work as an illustrator, graphic designer, and printmaker lead her into the colorful world of invitation design. After earning a degree in graphic design from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, Anne learned letterpress, screen-printing, and other print methods through the vibrant Chicago printmaking community. Her design sense is broad and playful, drawing from the art deco, art nouveau, and pop art movements, classic children’s book illustrations, Japanese printmaking, vintage animation, nature documentaries, and funny-looking animals.AThe unique aesthetic of Mok Duk invitations stems from Anne’s facility for hand-drawn type, organic and fluid shapes, the brushed line, and textured drawing styles.
