'Japon'
The assignment was to create a digitally illustrated portrait with a pattern and visible title. I chose to draw a geisha (Geiko 芸妓), which translates specifically as “Woman of Art”. The title ‘Japon’ means ‘Japan’ in French, and ‘dress’ in Dutch; referring to her kimono. I’ve placed some cranes on the kimono as a symbol of happiness and eternal youth. The recurring pattern at the background says Japan aka Nippon in kanji: 日本.
I used a beautiful photograph by Nailee Wang as a reference for this illustration.
