RESEARCH ABSTRACT: By drawing upon elements found in nature, such as organic shapes, textures, and colours, we sought to capture the essence of the natural world and infuse it into the illustrations. This approach not only imbues the artwork with a sense of authenticity and warmth but also allows for a unique and personalized interpretation of the subject matter.
Furthermore, the intentional misregistration of colours adds a layer of visual interest and unpredictability to the artwork. This technique creates a sense of spontaneity and playfulness.
Overall, this approach to illustration celebrates the beauty of imperfection and the boundless creativity found in the natural world, resulting in visually captivating and emotionally resonant artwork.
CHALLENGE: Refining hues to harmonize with the inherent tones of fabrics.
