Day Off

As an illustrator who often draws more serious scenes, I also want to take time to draw more light hearted themes as well .This time, I wanted to show my characters just walking in the busy streets and having a relaxing time. Despite the carefree and pleasant mood, the challenge was still to create a captivating scene that was both expressive and realistic. The greatest difficulty was to conceptualize a setting that would complement the mood perfectly with the right colors and lighting, without straying far from reality. As the key focus of the scene, I also wanted the characters’ poses and expressions to match the mood, with even their walking gait being an important visual cue. In addition, their clothes were also designed to complement each other, being a mix of elegant monochrome and vibrant reds. Overall, compared to more close up scenes, there was just so much more to decide on and draw, it was quite a challenge!
