Japanese vocabulary illoz 1

I am trying a method of learning through designing. It is especially efficient, when it comes to memorizing something as visual as Japanese kanji and words containing them. The basic concept is to create very simple vector illoz in a very short time, which would help me remember those otherwise abstract writing signs.

Apium Regis

I am publishing more artworks from the Tales Of Consumption series, made this year. Please meet King Celery who rules in the soup. The taste of celery is strong so it should be added wisely in small amounts - at least that is what my mother taught me.

Corneaters - Pestcards

Unpublished before - "Corneaters Pestcards" - an addition to "Corneaters".

Postcards with images of Maize Pests - Sitophilus Zeamais and Helicoverpa Zea. For these little animals maize is as important source of energy as it is for us. Inevitably, we use pesticides to reduce their number. If we put the killing aside and have a closer look, we might see just a funny beetle and a fluffy moth.
