Unveiling the Unique Style of a Self-Taught Artist
Discovering your artistic style can be a daunting task for any artist. However, successful artists have a distinct style that sets them apart from the rest. Singapore-based artist Rachta Lin, known for her work with DC Comics and MTG, is one such artist. With her vibrant use of Copic markers and pens, she brings characters to life through a variety of colors and poses.
But Rachta’s artistic journey wasn’t always smooth sailing. Over a decade ago, she experimented with digital art in a completely different style, believing it was necessary for success in the industry. However, as time passed, she evolved and eventually found her true artistic identity, which she shares in this exclusive interview with ONE Esports.
Evolving Through Creative Processes
Rachta’s first principle as an artist is to constantly push herself beyond her limits. “I always strive for improvement,” she says. “Stagnation is never a good thing, whether in art or in life.”
Her artistic style has undergone significant changes over the years. From black and white drawings to exploring the world of color in digital art, Rachta has experimented with various styles that differ greatly from one another. She takes pride in her willingness to try new things and stretch her artistic boundaries.
However, she eventually decided to follow her heart and focus on traditional Copic drawing, a skill she has honed for many years. While she believes there is always room for improvement, she feels that her style has reached a level of maturity and stability.
Embracing Traditional Art and Manga
Currently, Rachta is diving deeper into traditional art and focusing on improving her manga skills. She is working on her very first manga series, “The Wonderverse Saga.” As an artist who isn’t afraid to express herself in different ways, Rachta believes that art is a reflection of who you are and how you perceive the world.
Her traditional art often carries a dark tone, inspired by comic book covers, which she personally enjoys. This dark touch also finds its way into her manga, adding depth and character to her work. By infusing her art with her own identity, Rachta creates a style that is uniquely hers.
Conclusion
Finding your artistic style is a journey of self-discovery and experimentation. Rachta Lin’s story is a testament to the importance of pushing boundaries and staying true to oneself. As she continues to evolve as an artist, Rachta’s unique style shines through in her traditional art and manga.
