Yen Magazine, an Australian publication, emailed me to let me know that my artwork was selected for Curvy, their annual all-female art book. I was totally surprised because it was my first time submitting my work to them, and I knew that many girls had been trying for years. I was happy and thrilled to make it into this year's book.
If you're not familiar with Curvy, it's a showcase of some of the best female artists from around the world. It's where I've found some of my favourite artists, and this year looks to be another treasure trove of artistic finds, including Fumi Nakamura, Kelly Thompson, and many more.
