About Save Calendar Kalenderillustration
Save Calendar er en serie illustrationer skabt til en kalender med temaet madbesparelse. Illustrationerne viser en landbrugsmark gennem de fire årstider: forår, sommer, efterår og vinter. Farverne skifter med hver årstid, så de fire perioder er nemme at skelne fra hinanden. En symmetrisk komposition i kinesisk stil giver billederne et moderne udtryk. Oplysninger om måned og årstid er placeret øverst på hvert ark. Tegningerne er lavet med computersoftware og trykt i 800 gange 800 millimeter. Serien viser landmændenes hårde arbejde og minder folk om at værdsætte mad.
