Affirmation prints.
Affirmation prints were created to practice my illustration skills and to create fun prints to decorate my working environment. Each print is accompanied by a mantra to encourage positive mental habits. The project includes a variety of square prints, gift cards and postcards. The colours and shapes are soft and rounded to create a calming and peaceful atmosphere. I was especially pleased with the hand illustrations as I have always found drawing hands quite challenging.
To create the prints the illustrations were first sketched with a pencil and paper. Theses were then scanned and digitised using Adobe Illustrator and a Wacom tablet.
Digital versions of the prints are available for purchase at yogaoncards.com
BANANA JOY
The ‘Banana Joy’ print is a playful token of fun and freedom. We are reminded that life doesn’t need to be so hard or serious, and it’s ok to have fun and let go of expectations and self imposed limitations. When we take time to feel into our body and connect with our breath we cultivate liberation from the constant mind chatter that weighs down our being. A sense of lightness, joy and peace is able to naturally bubble to the surface, and we become aware that we are the love beneath the pain.
‘From joy all beings have come.
In joy all beings are sustained.
To joy all beings return.
This is the highest teaching.’
