I think your illustrations are incredible. But sometimes I wonder if the women a little too perfect/symmetrical. I'd be interested to see how the work would communicate differently if they weren't so idealized?

Thank you!! Yeah, that bothers me too. But somehow, drawing idealized features is kind of unavoidable, since most of my inspiration comes from fashion portraits and things like that. But I’m willing to try different things, for sure. I’ll try my best!
