There&#8217;s much more behind it, as in any type of design process: apart from the illustrator&#8217;s knowledge, effort, and practical skills, it also includes research, analysis, idea and composition search, working out the best color solution, and many other aspects leading to a needed outcome. In the case of creating a consistent set of illustrations, the process gets even deeper and more extended to reach the systematic design approach. That&#8217;s what we are going to talk about today: Tubik illustrator Yaroslava Yatsuba is ready to unveil her creative approach to illustration sets and share a bunch of handy tips for illustrators. Join in!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10301 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/illustration-set-process.jpg\" alt=\"illustration set process\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/illustration-set-process.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/illustration-set-process-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/illustration-set-process-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/illustration-set-process-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/illustration-set-process-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Whatever is your artistic manner and workstyle, the major advice from our illustrator is like that: <strong>never stop where you are<\/strong>. Only the constant learning process can allow you to achieve creative development and not to get stuck on the sidelines of the information field.<\/p>\n<p>But how to search for the needed data and process it properly?<\/p>\n<p>These are the questions Yaroslava asked herself working on a new set of illustrations called Curious Cat. In addition, in this art project, she wanted to try new stylistic techniques that are often found in printed graphics but rarely in web illustrations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Practical advice:<\/strong> If you want to reinforce and develop a certain stylistic skill, work on a <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/design-consistency\/\">consistent<\/a> set of illustrations, not a single artwork. In this case, you get a hand in it, your creative approach is more systematic and complex. What\u2019s more, you will tackle the difficulties which may not arise in one piece of art, and the customer, seeing a series of artworks, will catch the general style more accurately and understand that this artwork is not just accidental something taken out of thin air.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Illustration set process\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/461776114?h=55108cb5ac&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>Stage 1: Color Palette<\/h2>\n<p>At this case, the artist proceeded from a style that was based on imitation of manual printing graphics. So, she chose 3 <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/color-theory-brief-guide-for-designers\/\">primary colors<\/a>, the overlay of which would give her all the necessary palette and convey the spirit of screen printing. To reach that effect, she selected a brush in Procreate that creates the necessary texture. A more time-consuming but also more effective method is creating your own brushes using textures from real materials. Yaroslava also added a neutral gray color and a couple of paper textures to the palette.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-10302\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/color-palette-illustration-process-1024x727.jpg\" alt=\"color palette illustration process\" width=\"1024\" height=\"727\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/color-palette-illustration-process-1024x727.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/color-palette-illustration-process-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/color-palette-illustration-process-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/color-palette-illustration-process-150x106.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Stage 2: Theme<\/h2>\n<p>The artist was looking for an abstract theme that could have a logical sequence of illustrations and at the same time encourage her to search for new expressive techniques and compositions.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the choice was focused on the theme called Process, so the illustrations aimed at reflecting various stages of research and creation process. Also, this series had a mascot character: the curious and clever Cat.<\/p>\n<p>The illustrator took the basic and crucial stages of the creative process as themes for the illustrations in the set:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>statement of a question<\/li>\n<li>research<\/li>\n<li>data systematization<\/li>\n<li>analysis of the received data<\/li>\n<li>hypotheses<\/li>\n<li>solution<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Stage 3: Process<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s easy to see that the creative process starts much before the first line or word gets down on paper, canvas, or artboard. So, the set of artworks about the Curious Cat reflects will help us to define, describe, and illustrate the design flow for a series of digital illustrations.\u00a0 If you project this list of points onto the creative process for illustration, then it might flow in the following way.<\/p>\n<h3>Statement of the question<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>What goals do I set for myself?<\/li>\n<li>What do I want to achieve?<\/li>\n<li>Which illustrators do I like?<\/li>\n<li>What is in their work that caught my attention?<\/li>\n<li>What my work is missing?<\/li>\n<li>What skills would I like to upgrade?<\/li>\n<li>How can I reveal the topic?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t mean to ask these questions all together at once, it\u2019s enough to concentrate on a couple of aspects that are of interest at the moment since the tasks change and the entire analysis process needs to be done anew each time.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10313 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-question.jpg\" alt=\"curious cat illustrations question\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-question.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-question-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-question-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-question-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-question-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Research<\/h3>\n<p>This stage includes collecting references, selecting works of illustrators whose work inspires you, reading articles on the topic under study (in this case, about different kinds and approaches to the creative process), or perhaps even not this topic directly but the one that will really motivate you to work (for example, biographies of famous creative people you like), and creating a library or <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/design-mood-7-motives-to-create-mood-boards\/\">mood board<\/a> of photo fragments you like.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10312 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-research.jpg\" alt=\"curious cat illustrations research\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-research.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-research-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-research-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-research-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-research-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Data systematization<\/h3>\n<p>It is a vital stage.

It was the best was to reach the consistency and united look of the different artworks. What\u2019s more, a character was effective to clarify the terminology and actions as well as humanize and personalize quite abstract notions and phenomena.<\/p>\n<p>Here you can see the search process for the character images that went through several iterations before the Curious Cat was found as the best choice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10307 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-character-design.jpg\" alt=\"curious cat illustrations character design\" width=\"2000\" height=\"588\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-character-design.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-character-design-300x88.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-character-design-768x226.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-character-design-1024x301.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-character-design-150x44.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Hypotheses<\/h3>\n<p>This stage goes in parallel with the analysis. And often for illustrators, it looks like creating sketches and possible variations, ideas on how you can get the best for the required plot, which composition, angle, or shape is more advantageous for conveying the essence, which colors will emphasize the mood and set the needed atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10299 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/character-design-process.png\" alt=\"character design process\" width=\"2000\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/character-design-process.png 2000w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/character-design-process-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/character-design-process-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/character-design-process-1024x256.png 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/character-design-process-150x38.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10309 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-Hypothesis.jpg\" alt=\"curious cat illustrations Hypothesis\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-Hypothesis.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-Hypothesis-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-Hypothesis-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-Hypothesis-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.tubikstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/curious-cat-illustrations-Hypothesis-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Solution<\/h3>\n<p>The solution is the sum of all the stages passed and implemented in the illustration.
