葉馨文，筆名Yashin，插畫、漫畫、動態影像自由工作者，目前生活在台北。她擅長用圖像語言述說故事，用細膩成熟的筆觸，描繪現實與虛構的交會點。

Yashin的插畫作品細節豐富，極具畫面張力，常應用在活動主視覺、書籍封面、品牌形象。曾獲得義大利波隆納插畫獎、美國3x3插畫獎、日本ASIAGRAPH、中國Hiii插畫獎，並於法國、義大利、上海、日本、台灣等地展出，作品也曾選為華盛頓郵報網路文章插畫。

Yashin的原創漫畫多以細膩情感為出發點，曾獲法國安古蘭數位漫畫獎。2019出版以孤寂為主題的為科幻漫畫《藍色潮間帶Deeper Blue》，入圍2020波隆納插畫獎、安古蘭台灣館推薦書單。同年出版以酒店文化為主題的短篇漫畫《Cigarettes before $ex 事前菸》。目前以社群軟體中的人格為創作主題，埋首創作中。

Yashin在動態影像中擔任美術導演，將她細膩的插畫風格帶進影像內，在2018年的金鐘獎負責部分獎項開場動畫，也參與製作活動前導影像、品牌形象、多媒體影像。
