CARE FULL MOON

Abstract work of art. Glass, water and moon

I love watching the light. Behind the way light and shadow form unique and sometimes completely unexpected visuals.

I created this work of art using several stages and various techniques both in real life and digital.

I want to describe for you the stages of creating one of my favorite works.

 

First stage:

I decided to experiment with controlled lighting in the studio. To do this, I prepared several glasses and placed them on a white object table. I placed several light sources to create the silhouette and volume of the figures. Then arranged figures to create new unexpected contours reminiscent of abstractions.

 

Second stage:

Photo of the full moon and clouds at night. Nature delights me and evokes in me a surge and sometimes a storm of feelings and admiration. Seeing this beauty in the night, I decided to photograph it and then the idea arose to combine such a fragile material as glass with gentle soft moonlight and the tranquility of the night. In my opinion, they are very compatible and harmonious energetically and in mood with each other. There is something magical in the combination of glass and moonlight. Clouds and a lunar aureole add mystery to the picture.

Third stage:

Work in Photoshop and Illustrator. I enjoy the opportunities that Photoshop provides to express my individuality. Using various copying techniques, changing shapes and colors, blending modes and masking, I gradually achieved the geometry and abstraction that would convey the mood, message and harmony in the volumes and shapes of the entire picture.

Fourth stage:

Working with text and typography in Illustrator. The name “Care Full Moon” has several meanings depending on the order in which the combination of words is read. So I placed them on top of each other to free up the words and allow them to mingle with each other.

“Carefull Moon” means understanding the power of the moon and using it consciously and carefully.

“Full Moon Care” means that everything in this world is one and takes care of the planet and people. That the moon, in integral unity with everyone and everything, is aimed at increasing love through care. Feel it and see it.

The message of the whole picture is to take care of everything that surrounds us through creative positive actions in the awareness that by doing something out of love you increase love in every part of our universe.

This picture can be used by brands to emphasize their individuality and brand philosophy, showing quality, modern views on the design of their products and the depth of philosophy behind this products.
