Alphonse Mucha art style study
(featuring my OC Adlai Tiernan)
My OC Adlai Tiernan in my own art style:
illust/96524347
Drawing in some flat-color art styles, to give a break on my eyes. This art study is based on Alphonse Mucha (アルフォンス・ミュシャ), also known for his iconic art nouveau posters (アール・ヌーヴォー), The Slav Epic (スラヴ叙事詩)!
Mucha's shadowless figures float freely on the paper, as if from a fairytale or storybook. His art flows organically, from his hair swirls to his ray-like angel wings.
Graphic design is a key part of Mucha's art nouveau work, so I spent time balancing the figure, frame, and text elements in this piece. For example, figuring out how to weave Tiernan's curls took me some trial-and-error!
Mucha is of course fond of his flowers, so I chose to include sunflowers, marigolds, and roses as appropriate symbolism.
Although art nouveau is not Mucha's only art style (he has also painted realistic portraiture and symbolist paintings), I have no plans to do additional Mucha studies in this series.
