Artist Beautifully Draws The Magic Of Living Alone In 17 Illustrations



Los Angeles-based artist Yaoyao Ma Van As has an impressive professional portfolio. In addition to her commissioned work, the occasional illustrator creates personal pieces that majorly explore the magic of living alone. Each of her depictions features a female figure, demonstrating the perks of single life. From hovering in front of the fridge, quietly sipping coffee to searching for a midnight snack, Yaoyoa’s comics are heartwarming.


And with an adorable dog, Artist Yaoyao has proved that living alone doesn’t necessarily mean one is lonely. Living alone can downright be more exciting than you expect only if you see its benefits and learn to enjoy every moment. Yaoyao has won our hearts, and so we’ve collated her newest for your perusal. You also will be fascinated! However, the illustrator has done background art for shows, including BoJack Horseman and Rick and Morty.
