Qinni, la ilustradora conocida en las redes sociales como @qinniart, ha fallecido a los 29 años de edad. Qing Han, nacida en Canadá el 20 de marzo de 1990, había conseguido una gran fama y reconocimiento como artista digital, realizando bocetos e ilustrando personajes, lo que le llevó a tener más de 2 millones de seguidores en Instagram.

Qinni sufría graves problemas cardíacos y a los 28 años se sometió a cuatro cirugías a corazón abierto. De hecho, había realizado muchos bocetos inspirados en sus luchas médicas. En diciembre de 2019 anunció que le habían diagnosticado una esperanza de vida de entre un año y año y medio.

Got diagnosis today. Cancer, Stage 4, doc says I got about a year or year and a half left.

Durante sus años de formación formó parte de DeviantArt, un conocido sitio web donde compartía sus dibujos desde 2005 y que ha confirmado el fallecimiento.

Sus obras, que reflejaban en ocasiones una profunda tristeza, han evocado sentimientos en millones de personas, mientras que su técnica artística se ha ganado los corazones de otros artistas de todo el mundo. Qinni explicaba que utilizaba para su arte digital el Cintique de 12 pulgadas, mientras que para su arte tradicional empleaba Windsor & Newton Gouache, acuarelas de la marca Sakura y marcas sin nombre de pinceles de acuarela que generalmente buscaba en las tiendas de arte.

[Fragile] ☔️ • • • Consider joining my $1 patreon? Link in my profile :3~ Haha a girl’s gotta try xD~ • Hey guys, long time no update here. Not feeling the best today, but at least last round of chemo went better than my first round so I will take it. I feel so tired and weak but I've never had such strong urge to keep drawing, so I might have pushed my body a little too far yesterday.... I've made a list of all these old artwork I want to redo for an artbook so I'm slowly working through that. Thanks for sticking around, I know I don't update nearly as much here...do you guys wanna see me take screenshots of my twitter updates and throw them up on my story? I don't know how many of you guys follow me on twitter or even use it haha. I just wanna keep this a clean gallery-like place where I talk about my health stuff in the comments xD~ Lemme know in the comments? • Not sure how much I'm making sense now, my chemo brain is still pretty bad haha, but yeah, thank you guys for all the support, seriously <3~ #illustration #artistsoninstagram #drawing

Qinni utilizaba el Painttool SAI y Photoshop CS4 (generalmente para retoques) y explicaba que su inspiración llegaba «de todas partes, desde fotografías hasta lugares que visité, hasta obras de arte que he visto y que me gusta combinar para inspirarme para dibujar mis propias interpretaciones; incluso me han inspirado los anuncios».

Empty ⭕️ • • • So I took a break from social media for about a month. This really just was a doodle for myself and I wasn't even going to post it, but you know how sometimes messy doodles just kinda solidify... Well, anyways, stress got the better of me and I pretty much had to shut down and do something else for a bit. And by something else I mean nothing of significance at all lol. I wish things had gotten better, but it hasn't...my mom's white blood cell count actually LOWERED, and she still insists on working -__-;;. My granddad's tumour has...migrated... I'll need to go back to China soon to see him. My mom's preparing me for the worst and it's kinda all just happening at once? The doctors here are thinking of sending me to the Mayo clinic in the US because my heart disease is so unusual, and the scar is STILL growing according to the CT reports...And US medical fees are so much I dunno if I'd wanna go or just die and save some money for my aging parents 😂😂 Anyways, I'm not sure how "back" I am, but I'm trying to get back to art and maybe draw my stress out haha...but tbh it felt better gaming and not thinking about anything. Haha, sorry, I feel like every time I post online it's always so negative. I wish I was more positive these days~ Well, I'm more positive when I'm gaming and cooking? Lmaooo~~ I'm gonna go water my plants. Thanks for dropping by and sticking w me :) 💕

Qinni también ha trabajado como pintora de fondos para una compañía de animación canadiense. Su familia desaprobaba el arte, por lo que no se le permitía dibujar en casa. Su fallecimiento ha provocado una reacción de tristeza en las redes sociales, convirtiéndose rápidamente en trending toppic a nivel mundial.

Aquí puedes ver alguno de sus trabajos, de los que también subía vídeos en su canal de Youtube.

Hope I can find the energy to do better next year~! I promise I'll do a giveaway soon~~! It'll be some doily stuff 💮. I promise. 😆 🏮 🎉🎉Happy New Years~!🎊🎊🎋

[Birdcage] • • I'm back~! Sorta~ hopefully~ loll I kinda put stuff up on my patreon now :3~ link in my profile 👆👆🙏 mostly just sketches and wip tho, just one tier, $1+ xD~ I decided to set it up when my medications jumped to $400/month o( ❛ᴗ❛ )o;;;; • Sorry I've been away for so long without any update..I've kinda got some anxiety about not being able to draw as much as before and it was easier to just not thinking about the social media aspect of it all. ------------ A lil update on my health: Got discharged from the hospital last week and tried to finish this asap. Went in for abdominal pain but my heart was beating so fast in intervals they kept me in the cardiac ICU for close watch cause apparently it was really dangerous for a bit xD;; They also found a lump mass in my body and they're not sure if it's cancer or not. The pathologist team at the hospital can't agree on whether it's sarcoma cancer or a benign tumour I guess? So, that's been fun lol. It's weird how my body is like, really trying to kill itself 😂😂 BC Cancer was supposed to contact me last week but they're not very fast at contacting people I guess? XD -- Fingers crossed its not cancer cause my heart is still a mess and I've no idea how chemotherapy would mesh with my heart medications. I take soooo much heart meds now sometimes I worry for my liver and kidney lol, I hope they can take the meds xD~ I wish I had better news tho lol. I'm kinda still in medical limbo....it's like I've stopped in time to work on surviving and watching everything passing me by...kinda depressing sometimes haha...sorry uwu. But still alive tho. That's a plus. Lmao. ---------- TL;DR: my health is kinda getting worse but I'm still alive tho yaaay • Thanks to those of you who are still sticking around xD💕💕 • • • • • #illustration #surreal #pencil #drawing #instaartist

art blocked • • • get it? 👀😂 hey guys, it's been a while~! haha sorry... I've been a little...blocked up? lmao. I'm actually really nervous posting this cause it's been so long hahaha. it's kind of a combination of just my body being so tired all the time and me just not really wanting to draw or think about anything much. I kinda got a little sick when I visited China last month, and I guess it really kinda broke my body a little bit lmao. I hope I don't have to go back any time soon, but my grandfather has advanced lung cancer right now...I guess we'll see. I really hope he can still be here the next time I'm ready to travel again. ~ A little update on my heart disease though, the doctors still don't really know what's going on. The scar tissue in my heart has grown and so my heart function has gone down again lol. It kinda feels like pre-surgery when I walk uphill tbh. I get this major chest pain when I walked two flights of stairs the other day. (the doctor almost wanted to hospitalize me lmao....thankfully I don't have to go back and live in the hospital..for now...T_T;;..i hate the hospital so much lmao)...actually I'm getting a little chest discomfort rn cause I always get nervous posting my art 😂😂😭 On the other hand though, I was finally prescribed a medication that they want me to try. No one knows if it'll work, since my condition is so rare the pathologists can't find anything at all in north america's database, but it's better than nothing hahaha. I guess at this point I'm not...the most optimistic person? but I'm also....really tired.... But at least I'm alive right? Even if I feel super useless for not drawing as much or working...sorry, that's just personal stuff. I always wanna complain in these but then I immediately feel super bad for complaining lmaoo. Thanks for sticking with me guys xD. I know I'm probably losing a lot of followers and stuff now, totally understandable, I'm not the perkiest person right now and I'm not pumping out artwork like I used to xD~ Well, thank you guys for hanging around and actually reading through this lmaoo~ <3 #art #illustration #surrealism
