Design Details

Unique Properties
The author in these illustrations, as it were, stops the moment and gives the viewer an opportunity to enjoy this frozen moment, look at the details and feel the atmosphere that reigns there. A series of ProArt illustrations are made in a unique style with the sun/moon (any bright or accent figure) as the center and dominant color. It also uses negative space that complements the illustration and makes it deeper and richer.
Inspiration
The illustration creator is inspired by the world around us, its beauty and splendor.
Research
ProArt illustrations tell the stories behind them. The stories that are born in the viewer's head, in his imagination, evoke emotions and the viewer's attitude towards what is shown in the illustration. Art is not limited to one vision from the point of view of a person, it reflects the emotions that you have at the moment. Despite the fact that the illustrations are similar in execution: a dark frame and a light source in the center. If you look closely at the art, the details look very rich.
Challenge
Illustrations have their own unique style and rules that can be observed in each illustration ... The style consists in framing individual frames (as if the viewer is peeping through a window or keyhole), using negative space and a luminous central element in the form of a sun/moon.
Realization and Technology
Photoshop and Sketch are used to create illustrations.
Operation and Interaction
ProArt illustrations and general stylistics are used and can be used as prints on T-shirts, music covers, book covers, puzzles, paintings, stickers, posters and more.
Project Duration and Location
The creation of ProArt illustrations, in this unique style, began in December 2015, in the capital of Ukraine, Kiev, and continues to this day. At this point, more than 100 illustrations have been created in this style.
Specifications
Typically ProArt illustrations are 285x285mm (1080 x 1080 pixels). Due to the fact that illustrations are vector, their size can be changed without loss of quality.
Keywords
art, illustration, landscape, nature, proart, prokopenko, digital art,
