Julian Ou has been dedicating his efforts to exploring various mediums in his artistic pursuits. Lately, he has delved into the world of color pencils, markers, and transferable lettering, immersing himself in the possibilities they offer. His current focus lies in the art of lettering, a discipline that demands unwavering concentration and pushes the boundaries of his eye-hand coordination. Julian's exceptional ability to concentrate allows him to celebrate his artistry through this challenging endeavor. Recognizing the value and personal growth that comes with this newfound focus, he intends to continue incorporating transferable lettering into his artwork. Julian finds immense satisfaction in this technique and believes it to be both creatively fulfilling and advantageous for his ongoing artistic development.
