Tara's sparkling yoga routine
This series of yoga asanas has been done for a preschool to present them as FLASH CARDS to children during their yoga activity classes. These stretches and yoga activities are drawn keeping in mind the different forms and types of yoga a child can look and imitate during their activity period.
The aim of the client's brief was to bring out the beauty and elegance of yoga, along with the joy and warmth of childhood along with very cute postures and little over toddler age to show and inspire kids.
I'm constantly amazed by the flexibility and ease with which toddlers and kids move through asanas, and also by their overflowing energy throughout the day. I only hope that they sustain and retain this as they grow.
This reflection on the joy, exuberance and flexibility of children inspired this series on yoga asanas.
For the visuals, I was keen to see what could be done using a variety of photoshop brushes and grunge effects. The aim was to have a bright and attractive, but at the same time calming feel resonating through the illustrations.
The young girl, Tara, at the center of these illustrations is bristling with energy and optimism. I chose one distinctive feature (her flowing hair) for the client to emphasise in all the scenes.
I'm hoping that you and any children find these illustrations energising and attractive.
Please do leave your comments and feedback, thank you.
