Interview with
Illustrator / MMong
Question 01
What do you consider your strengths when you work?
Since I was young, I always felt drawn to express elements that convey “movement,” such as motion and flow, through illustrations. This led me to learn unique composition techniques for evoking a sense of energy, even in a static-looking image. My strength, in particular, is the ability to create artwork that leaves a long-lasting impression on the viewer's mind using abstract colors and compositions. In this class, I share special tips for using multiple colors at once while ensuring harmony and setting up well-balanced color ratios.
Question 02
How are your unique strengths incorporated into the curriculum of this class?
My goal is to demonstrate ways to create vibrant artwork where your individuality shines, going beyond explaining techniques. Every artwork can leave different impressions on viewers, depending on how and to what extent the artist's intention is conveyed. With my step-by-step guidance, you'll be able to learn layouts, colors, and compositions for expressing your ideas in unique ways while fully exhibiting your strengths through the finished work.
Question 03
What are the purpose and unique qualities of this class?
This class places a focus on unique, abstract composition techniques and the use of colors that suit specific moods. I will also share how to find inspiration for such distinctive compositions, as well as my full work process and other small tips. You'll explore the way a novel, unrefined idea can be visualized and the approach required to make ordinary ideas look extraordinary, creating illustrations based on various theoretical knowledge.
Question 04
Please leave a message for future students and aspiring creators.
There are many people who love art but struggle with creating it themselves. I've also seen cases where learning basic theory, which is supposed to improve your skills, restricts and prevents learners from freely expressing themselves. But I believe an illustration is a communication tool that allows you to show the world your creativity and express the story you want to tell. So if you don't know what to draw, start by drawing just anything. I hope this class helps you feel less stressed about drawing and makes it a more comfortable process for you.
