A Dream of Summer

Seeing a new Genshin Summer fan art contest inspired me to make a sequel drawing to my Ladies Summer Picnic drawing from a previous Genshin Summer fan art contest (which won me a prize) to bring me good luck. https://www.hoyolab.com/article/590529 It’s cool seeing how much I’ve changed since then. I was also inspired by classic styles of painting such as the symbolism and romantic movements, leaning more into even surreal visual story telling. Fun fact, I didn’t know when I started planning my drawing that Eula and Collei were going to feature in the in-game summer event, I just wanted to draw Amber and her friends.
