Character Design Line Works!

I wanna show you some character design of this week.
About last week, I had a long horrible fever over 5 days and that's really bad. Almost make me crazy! But I finished my first book and you will see it in the beginning week. I hope I can show you ASAP!
Okay! Character Design Time! All line works and I will do the color work in next week! Hope you like them!

Try to do some more about fashion illustration.

Here are two more about my fashion illustration. I think I will try to add some more Chinese feeling in the water color! Let me think about that! Think! We all need to do some different! I hate who copied the others and said that's all my works! Practices is good, learn from the others is good, passion is good, work hard is good, good relationship with the other famous artists is good. But use the others works is bad, too bad to understand. Keep learning and trying!

Missing you, my best friend!

My best friend Yoyo went back to China about 1 and half month ago. I was sad. Actually, I am still so sad and missing her so much. About her final project of AAU. I designed the cover and gave that to her as a gift. I thought she like it and me too.
Every time I saw this image in my phone, I always thought her and hope everything is wonderful right now!

The Big Red

The Big Red is my final thesis project of Academy of Art University.


This is my first own story: About a little Chinese Girl followed her pet dog went to a big red fish's mouth then found a very beautiful animal's world there. The little girl got some new animal friends and had a very good memorial time.


About the final illustration, I did two different styles: paint and ink and very colorful watercolor drawing. The paint and ink is my first idea. I really enjoyed to do that but only the outside world about the big red fish. Because in my mind, I wanted to build two very different worlds: the human worlds and the animal worlds in the big red fish. For the human worlds was a no color or two colors world: just like the black and white world. The inside of the big fish's mouth is a very charming and colorful world! All bright would be there and everybody felt very peaceful and happy. The paint and ink made the human world looks good and very different from the other artist's artworks but not for the animal world. I tried a lot of time to make the inside with the paint and ink but no successful. The line works made the illustration has a grey feeling and too dark for the inside world. Then I talked with Angela, John and Julie about this problem, the gave me a good suggestion: try a no line works' way and do the inside world's drawing first. I just started another way  to do my final but only 1 and half month left from my final review! Sounds crazy but I need to try. Actually, I have another very different style final project need to finish. although need to do the final thesis summary and book dummy with and without text. I already knew I cannot sleep in the left time before my final review. Then I start to do my colorful style and the beginning was so hard. I needed to give up my line works and change to only the color! After two week, I made it! the first drawing  was done! And that is the most difficult one on this story! That's about all the animal looked at fireworks with the little girl. I was so happy and I just trusted myself I can finish everything in next 4 weeks. 


About this story, I almost spent 8 months to thinking and drawing. And at that moment, everything looked good but I need to start to do my book dummy! My boyfriend Jamie helped me to do some Photoshop works and scanning.  And very beautiful Adrienne checked my text for me. She's so good and after her changes, that's a real children's book simple story! I asked my friend Jean, who is a very clever sister and good at graphic design and printing. She took me to some good paper shop to get some good textured paper to print my dummy. And I asked James and Gracie to borrow their apt to print. Because the wonderful printer was in James' home. He need to print this semester's final and Gracie had a lot of fashion marketing works to do. That's not easy to understand for me!  So they should be helped me to make a book dummy by myself. After a no sleep weekend, I just finished two of my hand-made book dummies in James and Gracie's sweet home. And Jean helped me to do a very beautiful hard cover! Thank you so much, my friends! Sorry for making you trouble! I used Gracie's mac book pro to print and made her have no time to do her assignments! Such a bad girl, Chengcheng!


James and Gracie, you are so good and always help me! I really love you so much! You are such a perfect couple in the world! Go marry ASAP! Best wishes and I will bring a big gift for you!


The good news is everybody love my illustrations and book dummy!
I just want to share with you about that.
