About Formosa Sapphire Scarf (Whīri Kaki)

Ko Formosa Sapphire he whīri kaki hiraka kua whakapaipaitia ki tētahi tauira o te Swinhoe's Pheasant, he momo manu e noho ana anake ki Taiwan. Kei roto i te hoahoa ngā rārangi peita-ā-ringa, ngā kiko rārangi angiangi me ngā tae kanapa. I rangahaua te manu mā ngā whakaahua me ngā pukapuka tohutoro, kātahi ka tuhia mā te mātai. I hurihia te mahi toi hei kōnae vector kia mau tonu ai ngā rārangi me ngā tae taketake, ā, i whakamahia ki runga i te hiraka mā te tā mamati. Ko te rahi o te whīri kaki he 650 mīrimita ki te 650 mīrimita. Ko te whāinga kia whakaputaina ngā manu taketake o Taiwan ki tētahi hunga whānui ake, me te tautoko i te mōhiotanga mō te tiaki manu.

Design Challenge
At first, all the sketches and paints are on paper, in order to print, the designer has to convert the original artworks into a vector image file. During the conversion process, adjustment work was time-consuming and challenging because the designer wanted to keep the original strokes and bright colors.
Research
Since Swinhoe's Pheasant is difficult to find, the designer observed the appearance of the animal through photographs and from the book Wild Bird of Taiwan, then drew the beautiful appearance of the animal delicately.
Inspiration
Swinhoe's Pheasant is a kind of endemic species in Taiwan. It is covered in feathers with blue color and its gestures are eye-catching and difficult to see. The designer was once lucky to see the Swinhoe's Pheasant in a mountain, and she was immediately impressed by the animal. She believes these birds should be introduced to the world. At the same time, people can also raise the awareness of endemic species birds conservation.
