Contemporary Depiction of Auspicious Motifs

A set of re-drawn auspicious patterns. Cranes are simplified into a few lines, koi fish become rounded color blocks, and peonies are reduced to just the outlines of their petals. The shapes are flattened, rounded, and have a slightly naive feel. They are scattered across walls, coasters, and packaging, in varying sizes, like a system of illustrations. Avoid: using meticulous brushwork or realistic painting styles, retaining the complex details of traditional New Year prints, making the shapes appear solemn, or having inconsistent styles among the patterns.

一組被重畫過的吉祥圖案。仙鶴被簡化成幾筆的線條、錦鯉變成圓潤的色塊、牡丹只剩下花瓣的輪廓,造型被調成扁平、圓角、帶一點稚拙感。它們散佈在牆面、杯墊與包裝上,尺寸大小不一,像一套插畫系統。避免:用工筆或寫實的畫法、保留傳統年畫的繁複細節、讓造型顯得莊重、每一個圖案的風格互不統一。
