The Concept of Illustration Design —— How to Write the Design Description of Illustration Works

What is the purpose and significance of illustration? The purpose of illustration is to play the role of artistic appreciation or supplement the content of the text, and its significance is to make the idea of the text clearer. Illustration is an art form, which is widely used in many fields of modern design with its true sense of life, intuitive image and beautiful appeal.

Hand-drawn illustration requires the highest artistic skills, and is widely used and rich in content. Hand-drawn illustrations are also widely used, such as some illustration picture books, story scene design and so on.

Matters needing attention in learning illustration

Each exercise does not need to have a high degree of completion, and can be defined according to your own needs. This can be summarized as deliberate exercise, focusing on single exercise and practicing what you can't do. For example, if the structure is not good, then you can do a lot of exercises that only draw outlines. In addition, you can also choose to cut corners in practice for what you are already good at.

The introductory practice of painting has two main functions: on the one hand, it is proficient in skills, on the other hand, it exposes shortcomings. The above methods can effectively achieve the purpose of the initial exercise, and the progress will be much faster, because many problems can be exposed quickly, and your own style may slowly emerge at this stage.

The design of illustration shows how to write a sentence and simply summarize the theme: who is doing what where?

When you have determined the theme, you can also determine the style you want to paint according to the theme, and then you can start to conceive your painting. Here we will mention the knowledge about the elements of illustration.

For example:

The theme to be expressed is: One evening, a little girl trapped in a mysterious castle is about to escape.

After determining such a theme, you can also determine the style you want to paint. Since it is a story of planning to escape, I chose the dark style to express it.

First of all, starting with the characters, I chose a little girl and added the role of crow to set off the tension of the picture. The fall of crow feathers also indicates that the little girl is ready to escape. In this painting, I chose people+animals to match.

You can choose people+people, people+animals and animals+animals to reflect the role of human classification. That is, the living thing in the picture.

After the characters are determined, it is the scene. Scene refers to the content except characters in the picture, including still life and background.

The light reflected from the castle under the moon at night reflects the tension in the dark style. Then add some pictures in the foreground of the picture to fill the vacancy of the picture, and the whole picture will be perfect!

concept plan

IdeaArt, a western art school, rose in the mid-1960s. The standard of conceptual art excludes the formation of traditional art, and holds that a real work of art is not a material form created by an artist, but a combination of the author's ideas or ideas.

When a tangible work of art is presented to the audience, the information obtained by the audience is not stronger than the concept of something or the significance of something in time and space. Therefore, photos, textbooks, maps, charts, tapes, videos and even the artist's body are used as ideas.

The media of art mainly lies in the process of expressing the formation, development and change of ideas.

Conceptual photography, which is well developed in China, is loved by young artists and used to express artistic concepts.

The development experience of art: concreteness → image → abstraction → concept.

In the 2nd/kloc-0th century, various art forms developed in parallel. The arrival of conceptual art shows that art is called art as long as the artist's thoughts are expressed in any media.

The development of illustration is from illustration (used to explain words) to illustration (which determines the academic significance of illustration) to conceptual art (conceptual illustration) (an art form to express artists' thoughts).

Concept illustration was put forward by Li Jinru, a famous illustrator. By drawing lessons from the artistic concepts of conceptual art and conceptual photography, this paper puts forward the theory of conceptual illustration for artists who express their artistic ideas in the form of illustration to learn and communicate.
