Drawings & watercolors: Diane Quee

Canadian Nature Inspired Photos and Illustrations
This project was carried out by two friends and artists: Diane Quee from Australia and Sylvie D. from Canada.
Sylvie is a wonderful friend and photographer. She has given me so much support with her sincere and positive feedback. Also, Sylvie is an inspiring and encouraging person who has kind words for everyone. Sylvie kindly allowed me to use her photos for inspiration and to create drawings and watercolors.
Those who have seen Sylvie’s photos on Behance would agree with me that they are amazing. Her ability to take close up shots of nature such as birds, animals, flowers, insects etc and show their individual characteristics is truly breathtaking. Her photos also reveals Sylvie’s passion for photography and nature. Drawing inspiration from Sylvie’s photos of nature, I wanted to capture the beauty, sensitivity and unique attributes of the subject in my artworks.
Thank you so much Sylvie for giving me the opportunity to visually share your love of nature in Canada. You are an inspiring photographer and person.

Diane is a very talented Graphic Designer and a friend. She lives in Sydney, Australia. In her projects, Diane addresses themes related to animals and nature. Like the Green Turtles on the verge of extinction. The Dolphins. The White Arabian horses. In her drawings, watercolors and illustrations, always of great beauty, I feel her love and passion for nature and animals. Her works are magnificent and do not leave you indifferent.
It's always a pleasure for me to watch her projects. She is among the artists I admire at Behance. It is therefore a real pleasure and a great honor to carry out this project with Diane. I hope you love her amazing creations as much as I do.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Diane for your kindness. Your friendship. And for giving a second life to my photos. You are a great artist and Graphic Designer.
Congratulations for your excellent work !
