Icy Tan's art is about her keen observations and child-like wonder toward everyday life.

Details and small moments in daily life inspire her, and she considers herself fortunate to be a human being on Earth, able to experience the marvels of everyday life and capture her inspirations, imaginations, emotions, and subtle humor through her artwork and writing.

In her early childhood, she didn't have many human friends and instead established deep friendship connections with flowers, trees, ducks, dog, cat and beatles...Talking to her imaginary friends, writing a imagined story in her head was always a fun activity for her.

Followed her intuition, emotions and improvisional ideas, she paints her inner world, imaginated characters, travel life and observation with bright colors and loose lines. She enjoys drawing while immersed in music or amidst the hustle and bustle of human activity. She can draw anywhere when the right feeling hits her, drawing in a cafe or restaurant, among a conversation, or during traveling is never a chanllenge for her.

When she is not traveling, she enjoys drinking coffee and drawing alongside her best friend, the dog Xiaobai.
