30 Hours of Sky

30 Hours of Sky is an illustration summer project in which I had the opportunity to expand on my interest about digital illustration for five weeks. The project is about my emotional dynamic throughout a long and arduous flight from my home country Vietnam to the US to study abroad. I combined vibrant colors and my fluctuating feelings to demonstrate a more whimsical approach to the tiredness and confusion I had to face when I was on my journey. I also conducted light research on other visual materials and artists via the resource of Denison University's library to get inspirations and know more about various artistic approach of different artists.

Walking in the airport feels like walking in a garden blooming with flowers. I'm embarking on my artistic journey abroad.

I tried to hold back my tears when I was talking to my parents on the phone. I was homesick in my home country.

The confusion I felt when I was held back by the Japanese TSA because of an oversized toothpaste.

I'm switching on and off between being asleep and awake. The plane's engine was so loud, but I'm also too tired to bother.
