Cinyee Chiu's "Stone of Youth" (Stone of Youth) has reached the threshold for fundraising at FLiPER. The 24 solar terms bookmarks included, I really like it! In the future, I will open the box and use the same series of illustrations to cooperate with the wooden puzzle of "Sea Fish"~

The main body contains a storage box and 24 bookmarks inside.The illustrations of each solar term are designed with great care, using images, animals and plants that are connected to the current season. The colors and small totems are also very beautiful, which are in line with the feelings of each solar term.! There are short solar terms behind each bookmark.

The medium-thickness slippery paper is really suitable as a bookmark (nonsense), but I’m afraid I might lose it and keep 24 sheets (X).

Cinyee Chiu

Taiwanese, freelance illustrator who is nomadic in the world.

Inspired by Jimmy, I have been interested in picture books and painting since childhood. Affected by the mainstream values, the university chose to study in the Department of Economics, and it took a long circle to return to the original point, regaining the brush, and taking my talents and dreams seriously. In 2014, I went to the United States to study for a master's degree in illustration from Maryland Institute College of Art. After graduation, he won numerous awards for his first exam, and was awarded by Society of Illustrators, Applied Art, 3×3, AOI Prize for Illustration, Creative Quarterly, Hiii, etc. International illustration competition is sure.

The completed work "Stone of Youth" is Cinyee's creation based on his own experience, reflecting the inner hesitation and weakness of the young generation. Not only did he get healed in the process of creation, but the work also inspired netizens at home and abroad. The huge resonance.
