« I started to show my interest in painting at a very young age, I was like four or five years old », says Helen Xu. This freelance illustrator and designer from China began to learn Chinese painting and brush writing with her grandfather. A traditional and ancient art that makes her practicing and allows her to make unique detailed illustrations. « I found my own style when I was growing up. My work is inspired by online pictures, such as girls, birds, plants, animals, and various elements. I also love to collect pictures and then according to some of my emotions, I put them together into a piece of work, to express my feelings ».
