Now on View: Zainab Mughal

Simply stated, Now On View celebrates and showcases the artists of Society6 and their work. Get to know them—and then get lost in their gallery.

Who are you and what do you do? I am Zainab and I work as a graphic designer, but have had a strong passion for illustration since a young age. I make illustrations in my free time as, for me, art is a vehicle for meditation and self-connection.

Current city: Birmingham, United Kingdom

How did you make these? I make digital illustrations on Procreate and then use Photoshop to refine them. I love playing with colors and textures. I am obsessed with the color pink and coral which I end up using them everywhere in my art.

Why did you make these? I draw what I love and what I am inspired by. Normally I enjoy drawing flowers, plants, shoes, girls and interiors. I experiment with loads of different styles but keep the consistency in my illustrative style. As a graphic designer, I have learnt to experiment with what works in terms of placement and color choices, so these choices really help me with my drawings. I draw to visualize my thoughts and opinion as it allows for true self-expression.

What do people typically say about your work? Usually they enjoy my color palette as it works together, and they find my illustrative style is cute and fun.
