Stephanie Pui-Mun Law

Stephanie's work is very intriguing, and I first saw her work online. She is an illustrator, and does a lot of her work in either watercolor or ink drawings. Most of her work is mythical or of the "fairytail" type. But this is not why I find her work so interesting, but her technique and style is what I really admire. She has a way of controlling color and line, and it comes out to be gorgeous. Her work, I believe, has a light air to it, that makes you feel so bubbly and child-like. And this image(Jade Hills)> really reminds me of a more modern and lighter Starry Night, with the colors and the vibe that comes off of it, like calmness.
So to me, her techniques reflect a more traditional style, while she puts her own emotions and a uniqueness that appears to be unmatchable.

  1. Welcome aboard, Kristie! Lovely subjective description of Law's work and your mentions of a connection with Van Gogh is a interesting touch. It would be good to let the reader(s) in on the context for her illustrations (books, periodicals, etc.). And don't forget to supply a citation with the image (http://www.shortstreet.net/mlacites.htm) even if you have mentioned it in the post...
