Zelda Artist Exposition: TixieLix
Posted on April 19 2014 by LukeSaturn
Hello everyone! Welcome to Zelda Artist Exposition, it has been a while since the last one (Internet and scheduling troubles got the better of me, sadly). For those who are unaware, Zelda Artist Exposition is an editorial/feature series where I show a different artist with each post. The purpose is to spread the love of art and gain recognition for these excellent artists. Suggestions are always welcome in the comments so if you know an artist who has a few Zelda pieces you really enjoy please let me know. Today’s feature is TixieLix of deviantART.
Residing in Australia, TixieLix, whose real name is Lixin Wang, has been on deviantART for around two years. In that time she has uploaded 247 art pieces, accumulated over 138 000 pageviews, and gained over 5700 watchers. Wang is both very popular and very active on the website.
Really, Wang is not a “Zelda artist.” Her gallery is quite expansive with only about 25 percent dedicated to Zelda-related items. Other than Zelda, her fan artwork covers The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, Game of Thrones, Castlevania, and largely the video game series Street Fighter. Although her style has predominantly evolved, most of her work leans towards realism with the general tendency to darker representations.
Below is a selection of some of her best Zelda works although it was incredibly hard to narrow it down.
Check out Wang’s page and gallery for tons of fantastic artwork. Even if none of these pieces really struck you, there were many pieces I couldn’t include so it is bound to have something for you. It appeals to more than just Zelda fans as well. Thank you all for reading and supporting the artist.
