Li S.
Illustrator & Designer
Hello! I am Li Shuhan, a dedicated watercolor illustrator with over 5 years of experience specializing in watercolor illustration and realistic watercolor painting. I combine creativity, technical skills, scientific knowledge, and a keen eye for detail to deliver high-quality paintings and designs. I love plants, animals, and all about nature's stuff. I even took a master's degree in biology for it (I graduated from the South China Botanical Garden, part of the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences). Getting a deeper understanding of nature from a biological perspective is a great way to draw them well. My paintings and illustrations tend to be full of details, intricate, classical and realistic. Alphonse Mucha is my favorite artist. At the same time, I am committed to blending natural art with modern commercial aesthetics. I think it's a good way to bring my ideas to a wider scope. What can I do? - Illustration art: for games, books, patterns, packages, jigsaw puzzles, ornaments, academic papers and more. - Graphic design: for posters, packages, patterns, cards, PPTs, and more. What art style am I most good at? - Art Nouveau style - Ornamentation - naturalistic style - Realism Tools I Use: - Watercolor - Ink and pen - Procreate - Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator) Let's start the magic together!
