About Save Calendar Primêre Funksie: Kalender-illustrasie

Save Calendar is 'n reeks illustrasies wat vir 'n kalender geskep is met die tema van kosbesparing. Die illustrasies toon 'n plaasveld deur die vier seisoene van lente, somer, herfs en winter. Kleure verander met elke seisoen, sodat die vier tydperke maklik uitmekaar gehou kan word. 'n Simmetriese samestelling in 'n Chinese styl gee die beelde 'n moderne voorkoms. Maand- en seisoeninligting word bo-aan elke vel geplaas. Die tekeninge is met rekenaarsagteware gemaak en teen 800 by 800 millimeter gedruk. Die reeks wys die harde werk van boere en herinner mense daaraan om kos te waardeer.
