This is an illustrator from China who I am very fond of and have a large impact on my concepts about illustration. She is very good at using the mixture of materials like color pencil, gouache and watercolor to create a dream-like atmosphere.
The illustrator has a preference of depicting dream-like, melancholic, mysterious loneliness. Some of inspirations for her stories, illustrations and comics came from her dream.
Except for the compositions (only two figures standing with a small scale compared to the whole image without a detailed background scene), the illustrator is as well very good at using the comparisons between highlight and shadows as a tool to create atmosphere.
The protagonist can be very small in the middle or on a side of the whole composition.
She is used to choosing a basic tone for the whole image and depict the details with vague outlines to avoid the effect of brightness and clearness
An example of her comics depicting loneliness. Compositions, storyboard, highlight and shadows, tones of colours are combined perfectly to create the atmosphere.
