Artist Illustrates The Magic Of Living Alone

Artist Yaoyao Ma Van created a series of images that pretty much sums up the magic of living alone. With her art, the gifted painter, illustrator, and occasional animator, based in Los Angeles, California, perfectly captured the intimate moments in life. According to Ma Van, she gets inspired by everyday events.

“To me, it doesn’t matter if you’re living alone or living with people, every girl (actually everyone) goes through similar emotions, whether it’s love, heartbreak, loneliness, or pure joy… and I just wanted to depict some of those,” the artist tells ART.gallery. “It’s therapeutic for me to do these, and hopefully, it reminds everyone that we’re not alone in feeling these emotions.”

With her remarkable illustrations, the artist gained more than 714 thousand Instagram followers. To see more of Ma Van’s work, check out the gallery below.
