My Backyard Series/ Report

Abstract

My Backyard Series was an illustration project inspired by nature life. The idea was to present the aesthetic of the small nature living being and to create a smooth emotion that we received from being among nature. The main focus was the small creatures and plants which usually lived on a forest floor and could often be found in a yard. The aim was to persuade both children and grown-ups to appreciate the values of nature in different aspects, such as the nature’s aesthetic values and their duties/responsibilities to the ecosystem. Hopefully, the visitors would get some constructive emotion from nature. My purpose was to communicate the heavy information of eco-system in an easy and understandable way through story and pictures. Moreover, I intended to stimulate children and grown-ups to be more interested in nature around us. Hopefully, the readers would get a pleasure moment and fun imagination upon nature issue through my artistic work.
