Drawing ✏️
During my free time, I like to draw weird creatures from my imagination and sometimes draw actual Disney characters because I'm a Disney fan. I color them in to make the drawings even more realistic and colorful.
Taking photos 📷
Whenever I see a pretty sky, I pull out my phone to capture it and Photoshop it into a galaxy theme based on my mood. If I’m sad, the edits will lean towards dark purple. If it’s a good day, I will edit it to a more pink or blue sky.
Design clothes and styling dolls 👗
During my junior year of high school, I discovered a hidden talent in fashion design that led me to design clothes. This is my first design using a sewing machine and fabric bought from Joann, a fabric and craft store. I started with the idea of a night fairy, began with a dress design sketch, and then found fabrics and materials. In addition to fashion design, I am also very interested in styling clothes for my two dolls based on the occasion I am considering at the moment. For example, if I'm going to a K-pop concert, I would dress my doll Esther in the outfit to the left, as it looks like an idol's performing outfit.
Illustrate and Photoshop 🖌️
My interest in fantasy magical movies sparked my passion for creating imaginative, unrealistic designs using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. To refine these skills, I enrolled in a multimedia course, which helped me enhance my ability to create meaningful posters and artwork. For instance, I drew inspiration from Evian’s water emphasizing the importance of water in bringing life to everything. Additionally, a magazine piece about the unexpected evolution of the internet inspired me to create logos focused on sustainability and advocating for animal rights, reflecting the belief that animals deserve to live freely.
