Production Technology

Digital illustration is finished by computer drawing technology. Using "Sai" software, combining with digital board for image drawing and post art processing, this is a systematic process of art processing, requiring stylized performance, surreal digital painting is very promising.

Design Challenge

The difficulty and challenge of digital art illustration is to deal with montage's artistic effect and painting form vividly. It is not easy to achieve the ultimate in the pursuit of artistry and profundity.

Project Duration

The project started from March 2019 and finished in September 2019. The design is done in Shenyang.

Operation Flow

The content of the illustration is that the female characters have affinity with the marine life, surrounded by fish, coral, seaweed, etc., and the garbage left in the ocean by human beings. The information that they convey to people has three points: 1. The harmony between human beings and the ocean; 2. The destruction and pollution of the ocean by human beings; 3. The consequences that human beings should bear. These contents are transmitted to the public, and the artistic concept is deeply rooted in the people's mind.

Research

In the context of human damage to the ocean, marine organisms and marine resources have been greatly damaged and polluted. In the long run, human destruction is possible. Digital art illustration reflects this content. In the form of montage, it praises the harmony between human beings and the ocean from the front, criticizes the behavior of human destroying the ocean from the back, and expresses human reflection.

Inspiration

The originality of digital art illustration comes from the destruction of the ocean by human beings, and the concern and protection of the ocean ecology by human beings, with the purpose of sustainable development of the ocean.
