Digital art is obviously an interest of mine, but I have taken a particular liking to artists that are able to use it to create organic shapes and seemingly realistic images. The work of hangu is stylized to a certain extent, but the strokes that make the clouds and the seemingly transparent nature of some of the water scenes are enchanting. Almost all of their work includes a figure staring out at the ocean which is another reason to like it; it seems like they are looking out at this vast openness and are at once scared and enlightened by how limitless they are in that moment. The figures seem to have a journey ahead of them or have just finished one, but the viewer doesn't know whether they are at the beginning or end. The continuity of meaning in the viewer's mind, better said as curiosity, is well structured in hangu's digital paintings and is something I need to work on.
