I take a lot of reference images for my daily practice. Sometimes during my travels, I quickly sketch out some artworks to capture my initial thoughts about landscapes. I then pick suitable angles as references to draw out in my spare time.

This image was inspired by an experience from my hometown. I captured some compositions with my camera, and back at home I tried to express the feelings I’d had at that moment.
