Qian discussed the steps she takes to create anything and how much time it takes her.

Despite the fact that my works are rather small—they are typically less than ten centimeters in size, and even full-background pieces are less than twenty centimeters in size—I always begin by rough sketching them out on paper. After that, I make a version that is more refined before I transfer it onto watercolor paper. Because I tend to work on a piece of artwork a little bit every day in order to keep my concentration, it often takes me a few days to finish a single piece of artwork.
