二十四節氣 24 Solar Terms

A personal project in 2014. I designed and illustrated animals for the traditional East Asian 24 solar terms.

For each term, I merged the featured vegetable or fruit, or the special environmental changes of that weather into the animal.

Not all the terms has a related animal, and usually several terms share the same vegetables. I tried to select and arrange them for better design and visual diversity.

小寒

XiaoHan (Minor Cold) | Eurasian magpie start to feel the warm and build the nest; crown daisy.

• 雁北鄉：鄉，嚮導之義。大雁在此時飛回北方。與白露第一候相呼應。
• 鵲始巢：鵲，喜鵲也。喜鵲頂著寒氣開始築巢。
• 雉始鴝：雉，野雞也；雊，求偶的鳴聲。早春臨近，野雞開始求偶。

喜鵲ｘ茼蒿ｘ冷色ｘ梅花

冬季的倒數第二個節氣，天氣雖寒冷但還不到一年中最冷的時候。俗語說：「小寒大冷人馬安」，指冬至過後的天氣需再冷一些才符合季節變化，人畜也才會平安無事。設計圖面以雪白的喜鵲為主題，加入冬季盛產的茼蒿元素於頭部、翅膀及尾巴，象徵這個最適宜吃火鍋進補的冬令時節。

「梅花」的漸層藍設計頗具巧思

有仙氣的喜鵲，跟芒種的雉雞同類型，費時15分鐘。
