Alina Chau - illustrator, animator - Artist research
Alina Chau is a filmmaker, animator, artist and illustrator. She grew up in Hong Kong when it was a British colony. Her art is influenced by Chino-Indonesian origin. She became interested in art as a career path only in college. She was inspired by childhood stories, traditional clothes and art, Asian cuisine and the atmosphere of Hong Kong. She has been admired for her unique storytelling voice, her illustration style and her use of watercolour technique.
Alina Chau relates to my progression in Graphic Design and Illustration and to my theme because she decided to do children’s illustrations and her work is funny, energetic and full of colour. My project links to her art because I would like to create illustrations to books using both Photoshop/ Illustrator and, as Alina, combine it with some other medium.

Decent enough effort, but there is an opportunity here to go further in this post. Perhaps you could talk about one of the specific examples you show here in detail to illustrate what you are talking about in terms of how Chau makes her work and uses the techniques you mention.
