About Ryujin Primaarne funktsioon: Illustratsioon

Ryujin on illustratsioon, mis on inspireeritud Jaapani mütoloogia mere lohejumalusest. Kunstiteos loodi nullist ning järgib minimalistlikku lähenemist, keskendudes tugevalt detailidele. Taust kujutab Jaapani stiilis laineid, mis peegeldavad tegelaskuju. Kontseptsioon visandati esmalt digitaalselt, seejärel rakendati vektorjoonistust, varjutust ja värvi ning lõplikud kohendused viimistlesid pildi. Illustratsioon on trükitud plakatitele, õnnitluskaartidele ja särkidele. Eesmärk oli edastada tegelaskuju jõudu traditsiooniliste Jaapani kujundite kaudu, mis on ühendatud isikupärase stiiliga.
