Portfolio review
“How Chanti captures emotions in metaphors and translates them into images is powerful and sincere” (Greetje Poelmans, Clavis Publishers);
Chanti’s style:
has a very recognizable playful look and cartoonish character;
the lines are expressive, casual, and simple with a humorous tone;
the variation in pressure evokes a sense of movement;
emphasizing character and movement, the proportions and dynamics are deliberately stylized in a childlike way.
A loose, casual appearance; an intuitive, minimalist line drawing; and a humorous tone, show the hand of the artist.
key words: loose, energetic, lively, minimalistic; sweet, playful, intuitive, explosive, casual, humorous.
