Description I know it's a weird influence map, isn't it? Let me explain some things, I'll warn you it'll be a wall of text!
The blank one is here .

1. Sung-Woo Park
He's like my no. 1 manga/manhwa style artist. His manhwas were the first ones I've seen and I've been blown away from his skills and designs. Each line, each panel and each page is filled with such perfection I desire.

2. Rembrandt van Rijn
3. Leonardo da Vinci
Old masters from old times. Their skills are not human and they have my full respect. When I was small I wanted to express art as they did. Well, I still do love the realism they did but I know it's going to be hard or nearly impossible to be like them.

4. DeviantArt
Yes, of course. This huge place full with artists. You people are all influencing, motivating and giving me new ideas.

5. Ragnarok Online
Few years ago, it's been a big part of my life but I somehow let it go. I still love RO art but it's more looking at them than producing RO art myself recently.

6. Hyung-Tae Kim
I guess many people already know him? He is one of the most famous Korean artists. His design are so unique and detailed. I also love it that he adds Korean flairs into his designs.

7. my family
Not always but they are still supporting me in some sense. They were against my art studies but I'm here now studying art major. I do understand now why they didn't let me in first place. And I'm happy that they still support me although I decided for another path in my life.

8. Violine
I'm not really a "musical person". I say it this way since I can't sing and dance and I don't even have a favourite singer or band since I'm not really interested in music. But I love to play violine especially when playing a duet with my sister(she's playing piano then). I've been playing since I was 5 and I'm quite sad that I don't have that much time as I had during school time. I hope I never forget playing violine till I die.

9. Movies
The poster is actually from the movie Inception. I picked this one since this was the one I enjoyed most recently. I love movies and I watch them quite regularly. I love to watch them in cinemas but there are only few people who wants to go to cinemas since it got so expensive. But seriously, there haven't been many movies out which were worth it..

10. CLAMP
The picture shows X, one of their masterpieces. I love their stories, how they build them up and make one think about the important things in the life. They are one of the best manga artists in the world!

11. Alfons Mucha
Quite famous for his women in art nouveau style. I copied a lot of his art when I was small.

12. Korea

13. Min-Woo Hyung
His most favourite work is Priest I think. I met him on a book fair in Germany and I freaked out since I'm such a huge fan of him! I got signed posters and books and that day was one of my happiest days in my life. I love his unique lineworks and ideas.

I love the idea, what's more I like that I find another person who is interested in manga and yet love the old master, like Rembrandt(btw he's one of my favourite^^)

Oh thank you Yeah I love all the old masters but I seem to be the only one who loves them! I'm art major and I dunno anyone who likes old masters

Youre art major! Splendid I love old masters, every time I vistit a museum I'm spending there a lot of time, museums are my second home I guess. I mean you can learn a lot of just by looking and analysing their works. For example I'm trying to understand a color theory by analysing impressionist works, I simply adore impressionist but I can talk about art a lot of and for a long time, so better stop right now

I really love the old masters of art. When I was young and really into anime I sadly had ignored them but now that I am a junior art major I have learned to really focus on them. mucha is wonderful with line and composition, di vinci with detail, Rembrandt's scenes were magic....so many wonderful masters that many seem to have forgotten. Reading your comment made me so so happy to know others appreciate them. I hope to someday be as half as talented as many of them.

omfg I LOVED Sung-Woo Park's mangas; I read one of the 20-something volume ones in one night once LOL

I don't think he is a particularly excellent artist in terms of drawing and complexity but for some reason I just LOVE his styles and designs. They appeal to me in its simplicity and cuteness.

and omfg I didn't know you play violin!!! I really wish I started as early as 5!!! Learning at 21 is no good and I am incredibly sad about this.

I think you are talking about NOW? I loved it so much! He was doing such great Korean influenced designs and it looks so awesome >w< I love his fighting scenes, they are greatly composed

wahhh starting with 21 is cool too! I mean better now than too late right? I should play violin regularly but since I'm not in an orchestra or anything I forget to practice x_X

I love how CLAMP makes you think! Their words are so beautiful, even if some don't like their art. As for me, I like their art and story. ^^

leinef In reply to giantkitty [2010-08-27 16:27:08 +0000 UTC]

Oh I love their art too It's so impressing that they can evolve their art style to the time and change it the way it's suited to the story! I guess there won't be another artist group like CLAMP in lifetime!

W-wow, I never suspected to find another Priest fan on DA! I love this manhwa, the way Min-woo draws is inspiring His lines are so perfect... I bought his artbook recently.

Awesome map! ^.^

leinef In reply to KitJoYuki [2010-08-27 16:26:10 +0000 UTC]

Ooooh don't tell me you like Priest too?! So rare to see priests fans at all >w< The artbook with his signature is my treasure no.1! He was so cute 'cause he've drawn little pictures in every artbook but he didn't in mine so I was a bit sad. He saw my face and he has drawn a small picture in the next page and added a heart into his signature xD I'll never forget that!

KitJoYuki In reply to leinef [2010-08-27 16:44:57 +0000 UTC]

Waaah you got a signature from Min-woo? ;A; That's so awesome! I don't think he's ever come to England... but if he does, I'll try and get my artbook signed too! Maybe if I ask nicely he'll draw Ivan for me xD
