I am so
inspired by the work of other artists and I wanted to share one that has taken
a medium that was relatively new to them and created a complete brand.
Ohn Mar
Win is a UK based illustrator who creates beautiful, fluid water color
illustrations. Her color palettes are inspired and her details are fresh and
lively. She has a giving spirit and shares her process through classes on
Skillshare and work-in-progress videos on Instagram.

10 Questions
Work:
1. Do you work in any
other mediums other than water-colour?
Yes I work in pen and ink, brush pen, and I use PS and Ai on a
IMac
2. How do you choose and
organize your subject matter?
More my sketch a day I tend to just pick a subject on that day
- perhaps I saw a flower or a palette of colours I liked so wanted to explore
them further. I don’t really have a plan most days!
3. Where is your favorite place
to do creative research? Online? In person?
I do both. Sometimes I’ll take a photograph of something
whilst on a walk or shopping and bring it out when needed.
4. Do you have a favorite piece
of art or one that you are more proud of?
Oh gosh I really like a lot of my foodie illustrations but I
like some of the sketches where I mix up the mediums
5. Who or what inspires you
creatively?
Mostly everyday things or seasonal flowers can be turned into
lovely patterns. And I like seeing the art at the Royal Academy Summer
exhibition
Personal:
1. What was your favorite toy
or item as a child?
I did have a small tin paint set which I treasured and lots of
Roald Dahl books
2. What is your favorite movie?
Either Breakfast at Tiffany's or Bladerunner
3. What is your favorite food
to eat?
I could eat Sushi everyday
4. Do you have other creative
outlets?
I really like watching films and would love to write a
screenplay one day
5. Do you have any personal
advice for other artists that may be new or unsure about sharing their
creative talents?
I’d say just make lots of art, don’t be afraid of making a
mistake or a mess as we are all learning. That's why I paint everyday - I’m
still learning and developing myself. Soon you’ll se what you are attracted
to and then make more art with that in mind
