We had a simple interview with Holiday(@holidayqk) recently, who is the winner of the XP-Pen #xmastreechallenge last December, hope it can inspire you at the special times now. Although she got her first drawing tablet around 2009, Holiday didn't start seriously studying digital art until 2016. Like many artists, she never studied at art school or taken classes aside from what she had to take in high school. Everything she knows comes from the books she read. She also follows... tons of artists on social media for inspiration and ideas on new things to try.
About the winning artwork, she says "I wanted to make something festive, and festive to me meant colorful and vibrant, with lots of things to look at throughout the piece. I tried to use a lot of bright and bold colors and make things look as shiny as I could. The rainbow-colored garland around the Christmas tree in the background was kind of an accident, but it worked well, so I kept it."
