Well done, Airy, your work is always lyrical with excellent colour. I hadn't seen those fantasy illustrations in the beginning before (girl and boy with dragon), are they on the channel or maybe VK? Anyway, as for traditional materials, it takes guts to use them these days, especially the most delicate yet BRUTALLY unforgiving of all, watercolour! I've thought for years now that turning back to trad materials might be the only way distinguish from the coming AI mass production. Digital art will become impossible to tell apart (people v AI). The problem is that digital art is way easier to produce for many reasons and this is why it has taken over commercial illustration. The good news is, when  all the digital artists have been eaten alive by AI, you will be left standing and get all the illustration jobs.
