Shan Jiang is another talented illustrator that has been included in Issue 2 of the Six Years Later magazine. I cannot emphasise how much detail goes into every single one of Shan’s pieces. The line work, the multitude of colours and just the amazing depth of every single piece is just so mesmerizing and it would be amazing to see it any one of these pieces blow up to billboard size!
