""I transformed the memories and observations from the day into imaginative and playful scenarios: mini-golf on endless hills, or a military sound mirror turning into a huge bowl for a flower bath.""
""I fell in love with people sharing clouds they had seen. It made me look up more - especially in London, where a blue sky in winter is a treat.""
""In the thunderstorm chapter, a man runs into a ramen restaurant while an explorer parachutes through clouds; in another, a couple brushes their dog, and the wind makes its fur fluffier until it resembles a cloud.""
""For these two comics, I used Copic markers and carefully trialled different techniques to put my comic scenes into place.""
Liang's comics are shaped by her experiences during outdoor walks, leading to imaginative narratives. Her zine, The North Downs Way, reflects her first encounter with chalk cliffs, transforming memories into playful scenarios. Another comic, The Clouds, is inspired by the Cloud Appreciation Society, where she connects clouds to stories of people worldwide. Each cloud inspires a short story, showcasing various characters and their interactions. Liang's creative process is leisurely, experimenting with different mediums like paint pastels and digital drawing for her comics.
