And guess who received the most number of votes for August? It’s Hue Jia Yung‘s amazing surrealistic artwork!
Jia Yung is an extremely shy guy and rarely uploads his artworks onto social media.
“Mostly because I procrastinate one piece for who-knows-how-long. Got this done recently, broke the gold pen at various points of working on this piece,” he says. Well Jia Yung, it’s time you should upload more!
The winning artworks of all the 12-months will stand a chance to compete to become Eksentrika’s Art of the Year 2017. The winning artist will then receive a special surprise from us! Check out the previous art of the month here!
