I am Gian Tidalgo. I'm 14years old I am the type of person who likes to be alone but doesn't want to be lonely. I am the artist under the Alias of Djiyann a Traditional & digital Artist from the Philippines. I'm currently a 2nd-year high school student in Mindanao, Davao City. And a self-taught artist When I'm feeling motivated, I always express myself and my ideas through art.
Since I was a child, I've always loved art because it allows me to express myself and lose myself and feel as if I'm in my own world. My paintings mainly feature a girl portrait with emotion and sentiments in her face. I enjoy painting girls because they have always been my favorite subject since I started drawing and painting.
My digital art style is pretty different from my traditional style. I'm a big admirer of Jupiters Clouds, which influences my digital art style. I was always the artsy kid in school, art has had a significant impact on my life. Art allows me to escape from reality, but it is also a means for me to express things on my mind or things that are difficult to describe. I got into art by my Ate (sister) when I was around 4 or 5 years old. She introduced to me the watercolor medium, and I fell in love with it

Inspiration is like a flash of lightning you never know it will strike, I create art because I enjoy it. Art is something I was born to be as a human being. And my art is inspired by myself because I put my heart, soul, and time into the process. I also developed my style because of other artists, such as kelogsloops, who inspire me to paint and improve my art skills.

As I previously stated, my art style is influenced by the famous artist known as Kelogsloops, and I describe my style as a blend of realist surreal, abstract, and swirl art styles with the influence of anime and Jupiter's swirlsclouds.

Yes, ever since I was a child, whenever I see a color, I've been attracted to it because it has something about it that I can't explain. It has always increased my interest, and as a result, my creativity has developed, and I've started on my Artist Journey.And I hope that my goals will come true (puhon), and that I will be able to become the person I want to be. This is just one chapter of my journey; I still have a lot to learn and understand in the world of art.
