About Chinese Style Coffee Illustratio Involucri Cafeae
Cafea Stili Sinensis est series illustrationum pro nota granorum cafeae creata et involucris atque pictis tabulis adhibita. Illustrationes culturam cafeae cum cultura Sinensi traditionali coniungunt. Personae ex Opera Pekinensi et gladiatores Sinenses solitas figuras praeconii cafeae substituunt. Gestus ex actione Operae Pekinensis oriuntur et motum poculi cafeae tollendi revocant. Unaquaeque illustratio stilo graphidis cum applicatione Procreate delineata est, quae sensum manu factum et subtilitatem minutam servat. Magnitudo cuiusque illustrationis est XXI per XXIX,VII centimetra.

- Research
- In order to combine Chinese culture with coffee, I chose Peking Opera characters instead of the protagonists in the advertisement. Their movements are the special movements in Peking Opera performances. People can find familiar coffee in the illustrations, and at the same time, it can also make coffee lovers in the world interested in traditional Chinese culture.
- Inspiration
- This is an illustration for a Chinese-owned coffee bean brand. The design is inspired by traditional Chinese culture. The movements of the characters in the Peking Opera characters are very interesting, similar to the movements of people picking up a coffee cup. The style of pencil drawing can give people a handmade feel. It is an interesting attempt to combine coffee elements with traditional Chinese elements.
