About Save Calendar Ilustracija za kalendar

Save Calendar je serija ilustracija kreiranih za kalendar na temu čuvanja hrane. Ilustracije prikazuju poljoprivredno polje kroz četiri godišnja doba: proljeće, ljeto, jesen i zimu. Boje se mijenjaju sa svakim godišnjim dobom, tako da se ta četiri perioda lako razlikuju. Simetrična kompozicija u kineskom stilu daje slikama moderan izgled. Informacije o mjesecu i godišnjem dobu smještene su na vrhu svakog lista. Crteži su izrađeni pomoću računarskog softvera i odštampani u formatu 800 sa 800 milimetara. Serija prikazuje naporan rad poljoprivrednika i podsjeća ljude da cijene hranu.
