And I could be able to remember most of them after waking up. Then I'll spend lots of time to draw them out. Now, I just translate those dreams into fashion and pattern.I'm YIYI, I'm a dream teller.
STATEMENT OF ART:For me, style is the most significant thing. The so-called style is the most comfortable and natural state when the artist is creating. So, always being honest with ourselves is the only way to facing out heart and find out style.
