While it was a challenging time, it also became an opportunity to learn more about myself and my mental health. I remember I drew my heart out to feel better whenever things felt out of control. My work is known for its bold color palette, self-expression, and a love for the silly little things in life.”
Yiqing also shared more about the essence of her illustrations.“I find that I’m brave with bold color blocking, unconventional shapes, witty characters, embracing imperfect doodle strokes, and exaggerated emotions are my way to make a fun statement. As an empathetic person, I believe that my character, Bonnie the Bunny, is here to heal your inner child and add a little more fun to the mundane with a dose of dopamine.”

As for the creative process, Yiqing wrote: “A lot of times it starts from a sketchbook and pens. I notice the beginning is always the hardest because too many ideas can be overwhelming. I find that bad sketches are sometimes the best ideas.
