You know how when you make something for other people and then you have to do the thing you wanted someone else to do yourself and then you see a flaw? Yeah. That was this prompt.
In fact it has taken me, a whole month to come up with an answer to this. But I think I finally have it.
This piece of art as well as this artist is one of my favourites of all time. I loved this and many of Quinni's (Quing Han's) piecies. Her work was referenced by me a lot when I was in high school.
Her smooth and even linework is gorgeous and I'm sure her use of watercolour inspired my own. This was one of the first artworks of hers I saw, which I ended up using as reference for one of my own pieces, though mine pales utterly in comparison. And I always loved how she made her art glow. It was so fun and fascinating to teenage me who looked at it like it was pure magic.
Unfortunately Quinni passed in 2020, which was a huge blow to the art community and naturally all those who were close to her. I remember shedding tears when I found out. And now, looking through her Instagram page was painful. Many of us feel the same way I'm sure. She was such an inspiration and though I didn't know her, her art made me feel like I did and like she knew me.
And to this day, that's the feeling I wish to create in my pieces. I haven't been doing it too well lately, but I think I need to work on it.
So, what's your favourite artwork?
