Chinese Aesthetic Background
Software used: Adobe Illustrator
I made this design specifically for the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival. However, I realized later that the festival falls on the 17th of September, whereas I created this piece back in January, mistakenly thinking it was in February. Oops! 😅 Nonetheless, I think it turned out alright, so I wanted to share it. Please let me know your thoughts and if there are ways I can improve it.
Now, about this design:
The concept revolves around a scene where a bamboo sheet lies on the ground. On it, there's a ceramic teapot alongside two handle-less cups of tea. I opted for this setup to evoke a traditional Chinese vibe, and the tea has a milky texture. Additionally, you'll find mooncakes as this festival is often referred to as the "Mooncake Festival." Lastly, pink flowers adorn the ends of the frame, with their petals scattered on the ground purely for aesthetic purposes. Originally, I intended to depict cherry blossoms, but during the creation process, I changed course and added more layers of petals, resulting in this design. I think it turned out rather well, don't you?
This design was inspired by this Picture.
