Tribute to Qinni

It is such a loss.
I don't know how many of you knew her, but I am certain many of you would recognize her lovely, contrasted, full of stars art. She was taking part in gathering 'deviantart' community together and hit over 2 mln followers on instagram. That is how influencial her art was. And still is.
I believe she was so successful because her drawings were real, it was like reading a story of her life; it was so honest, tragic but adorable and tender at the same time. I was observing many people familiarize with her pain and emptiness feeling. Their stories were all different, yes, but she helped them to illustrate feelings and name them. And isn't that the begining of understanding problems which is therefore the key to solve them?
Her problem however had no solution.
I've no idea where from such innocent, fragile, petit girl was taking the strenght to stay optimistic and humorous for all this time.
She created a 'crying puddle' meme few years back and I got her quote:
" Well, no matter what happens, at least my meme sketch will be immortalized forever on the internets lol
saw someone use it just the other day xD~ "

I never thought of graphic influence that much before. It's completely different when you draw as a hobby, draw for personal use or for money. When it is your fulltime job, you just produce drawings as it was a factory procedure. Not always of course but I do find myself thinking like this sometimes. Looking what was happening with Qinnis art after her sudden death I realized, this is what will be left of me one day too, bunch of drawings. Immortal. And that is really optimistic perspective when I think of it. I am happy that a piece of my work stays in commissioners hands, some will last in games or films, some will live their own life (Olle. you know...) and piece of my heart will lay in dear people's hands.

I have to also say that I am impressed by how many people remembers of Qinni, cares, draws for her, spreading words and her art so it will not get lost in billions of other drawings and matters. She deserves it.
