Alone Lee has become known for bold compositions, delicate colors, crisp lines, and vivid storytelling. Her obsession with color stems from her childhood, and this sensitivity to hues is evident throughout her artistic practice. Alone Lee enjoys painting outdoors, believing that fully immersing herself in the environment can inspire creative ideas. Her essential creative kit includes snacks, paper and pen, an iPad, and more—tools she uses to capture the details and ideas of life.

In terms of color matching, Alone Lee suggests cultivating a sense of color through life drawing, creating color cards, and practicing combinations from monochromatic to multicolored palettes. She also emphasizes the relationship between color matching and composition, recommending the reading of relevant books to enhance artistic cultivation. Alone Lee's style blends the line sensibility of Japanese manga with Western animation, and her inspiration is largely drawn from life. Through continuous learning and practice, she has developed her own unique artistic language.

The pictures look at now as well as at colour. She wants more of both — colour, perspective, and whatever sits at the core — and the next page is still open.
