]]>“I think of myself as an artist who was put on this planet to push the boundaries in some way in the creative field and contribute something interesting,” wrote the Sydney-based artist on her website. “My work is all about revealing the hidden wonders of our everyday suburbs, but also delves into histories and stories, especially of a past Australia.”
A creative spirit if there ever was one, Liang doesn’t restrict herself to one medium, but rather works to blur the boundaries between different fields. An illustrator first and foremost, she is also an artist, an animator, and a creative coder, with her artistic process including programming, craft, and illustration. “Being creative is way more interesting when you experiment and play across different fields!” she rightfully suggests.
Having studied design at UNSW Art and Design has allowed her to experiment and play, as she explored different avenues of design that included graphics, jewelry, textiles, and sustainability. “Although I originally studied design, a lot of who I am now in illustration is self-made,” she says.
Her creativity is inspiring on its own. Add to that her high-quality work and you get an artist that is well worth your following.

]]>Born in the outskirts of Stockholm, Sweden, Hydman has collaborated with giants like Google, NY Times, and Giphy. “While working on an illustration I feel calm and concentrated,” she shared with I Do Art, “it’s a state of mind I’m longing for when I’m stressed out about something.”
Inspired by artists she finds on Instagram, her artistic process relies very much on her gut. “I tend to follow my gut and what I feel is funny, interesting or plain pretty in the critical moment of inspiration,” she says. “Other times I just remember that I love The Beatles or that I’m just stunned by how awesome Sailor Moon is, so I pay a little tribute. It’s a project I do entirely for my own sake, for the fun of it and for some GIF-fame.”
“Chubby, confident girls are my favorite thing to draw and I prefer them nude in all their glory,” she adds. “I also have a thing for sad boys. I don’t know why I like it when guys cry, I just do, so I make them. Literally.”

]]>“Over time my style has evolved,” Dumic said in an interview with Ballpit Magazine. “In the beginning, I used the details and textures to emphasize the story. As I started to deal with animation my illustrations have become simplified and more adapted to animation. Animation has enabled me to express myself in many ways. My style is a combination of smooth and flat shapes which are emphasized by the movement and wide range of colors.”
Aside from his animations, Dumic also illustrates.“Everything starts when I lie down to sleep,” said the Bosnian graphic artist. “I try to write down or sketch all the ideas that are rushing thru my mind. For the animation purposes I make storyboards which I later reproduce in a digital form. The script defines the style. I’m using a wide range of colors to create illustrations. The crucial aspect of animation is timing and emphasizing the right moment.”

]]>“I’ve lived in relatively urban areas for most of my life and in such environments, you’re just immersed in interesting culture without trying very hard,” she explained in an interview with Create & Cultivate.
“I find humans endlessly fascinating (and weird), and along that line I’m interested in the little worlds they/we create through fashion, decor, and culture more broadly,” she added. “I’m constantly cataloging all of this visual information in my head, or sometimes jotting notes down on my phone to refer back to if I just feel like doodling but am not sure where to start. For me, I’m tripping over inspiration daily. Sometimes it’s the bolt-of-lightning type, but most of the time it’s more like ‘I think I’ll draw my funny socks today because I love them,’ and that’s fine, too.”
Her thoughtful illustrations call for a more diverse, emphatic, and inclusive world. We highly recommend you follow her Instagram page for more inspiration.

His taste for art started at an early age. Growing up in a family of booksellers in Bangkok, Thailand, he has developed an interest in graphic arts and visual communication through middle school.
“I started doing graphic design work through middle school and high school before being introduced to animation in college, which really opened up new possibilities for my work,” he told Creative Mornings. “I always try to keep myself open-minded and see my work as an evolving thing.”
