I don't know. Maybe it's just me. I feel a bit more lonely after looking at this. But it's done so well nonetheless.
amazing!!! it is one of the coolest things i ever saw.
Wooooah I love this atmosphere!!! It'd feel so wonderful after a good night's sleep and you don't have work. You'll just peacefully and slowly prepare your breakfast, gaze at the beautiful morning outside while sipping your coffee. Turn your TV on in its soft volume and text your friends about your meeting. Waaaaaaahhhh I waaaaant! <3
This is my favorite one! I love the colors and I can definitely relate to this one in a weird way!
I like how this can be interpreted both as "doors closing slowly" and "doors just started opening". (As well as, doors almost closed/slightly opened) Is she depressed, but she can still see the light? (Hence the light is on her eyes) Or is she really disturbed by the light as she's trying to take a rest? It can be both.
SPIDER-MAN!!!!!!! Edit: I checked her Instagram and this one is something she did exclusively for 'Into the Spider-Verse' fanart contest
These are amazing! How often do you see anything original online these days?
these hover between realism and manga and somehow it absolutely works
They look so dreamlike and magical. Amazing. Good work. In some of them she looks so happy and in others lonely but they're all great
