Meet the Class of 2015: Yichi Liu

Meet the Class of 2015: Yichi Liu

Date

By Nigel Sielegar

One day Chinese born YIchi Liu looked at a picture of Venus de Milo, "by accident I believe because I don't usually kill time by staring at her," he says. "And all of a sudden I thought, hey, there are so many people trying to make Venus completed, but what about making her look as odd as possible? So I drew some versions and this is  maybe the oddest one of them. And yes, it's just for fun."
"As you can see, I love designs that are humorous, easy and bold," he adds. "I usually draw and write by hands because I’m no fan of technology, although I have to learn and use it sometimes."
