sylvia ji

Situation: I'm all moved and settled in at my uni accommodation with nothing to do.
Solution: I draw.

While I was looking about for inspiration, my love for artist Sylvia Ji was rekindled. Her art is spiritual, haunting, provocative and beautiful. Most of her based on women and their sexuality, said to be symbolic reflections of herself, sometimes people she knows. She also bases some of her themes on the Day of the Dead, which is a Mexican American celebration that I have always been intrigued with.
Anyways, I'll been sketching up ideas for a new tattoo based on Sylvia's work, so I'll be having fun mixing things up a bit. Pictures will be put up soon.
