Sketches
Using the mediums of sketches and illustrations, I'm able to immortalize those fleeting feelings and experiences, translating them into tangible visuals that speaks of my personal journey and feelings.
Cultural Relics
These sketches are from my hometown, Xi'an, a city rich in ancient relics. I spent half a month drawing the artefacts at the Daci'en Temple, Xia Ma Mausoleum, Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and Hanyang Mausoleum. I used vibrant colours to capture the essence of antiquity.
Printmaking
Printmaking is a wonderful media. The lengthy production process requires patience and meticulousness. The simple texture it conveys gives me a lot of creative inspiration. Sometimes, I write fairy tales and then create illustrations for them using printmaking.
Digitals
After 2021, I acquired my first iPad. Procreate is an excellent software. For a long time, it replaced Wacom and granted me the freedom to immediately illustrate my ideas anywhere.
London Moments
When I first arrived in London, I was unfamiliar with everything here. The cost of living was high, so I spent my days in the dormitory, drawing on scraps of paper or newspapers I picked up on the street.
