League of Legends - Prestige Spirit Blossom Springs Aphelios Splash art 🍵

It was truly an honor to work on the Prestige Spirit Blossom Springs Aphelios splash art.
As a longtime fan of Aphelios and the Spirit Blossom universe, this piece was especially meaningful to me.

I gave a lot of thought to how I could show Aphelios and Alune sharing the same space, enjoying the hot spring together, while still preserving the emotional tone of their twin sibling bond.
I struggled to find a perfect composition, and in the end, I still feel it could’ve been better.
Riot’s final polish added so much clarity and depth, and it helped me realize areas I still need to grow in!
It was a truly valuable experience, and I’m grateful for the chance to keep learning.

also always deeply grateful to Mingchen Shen at West Studio for the incredible guidance and feedback throughout the process. I learn so much every time, truly honored to work with someone I respect so much!
Thank you again to West Studio and Riot Splash Team for the opportunity🙏
