I was teaching the basic work in graphic designhas for several years. Here I wanted to share some of my ideas.
Art is the ladder of the progress of mankind, it also is the paradise of the human spirit. Art has led me ten years of growth path. In my intense studys and works, I participate in some artistic activities. It is useful for my life. Passing art activities, I get good exercises.
I graduated from Harbin normal university department of Chinese painting art major. After graduation I fulfilled a wish to enter a college. But unfortunately I was assigned to art design staff room, I was engaged in the plane design basis of teaching. The content of study is not consistent. Lead to later the teaching way, I walked is not easy.
One day, reading the newspaper I knew an outstanding art educators--Yang You xin had pass away. Originally only as a news read, I have never thought it incredibly has a contact with me. Our school's president and Mr. Yang had a deep relationship. Keep the old man's many artworks. In order to miss the old man, also carry forward in one hundred spirit of normal development, promoting the campus culture , improve all the teachers and students culture and art accomplishment. Our school decided to publish "memorial art educators Yang You xin Chinese paintings anthology" . Thanks Mr Yang dedicated himself to the education career. As a successful and influence of art educator, painter, the old man was in the forty years fostering a large art talents for the fine arts education. The development of the cause of made an important contribution. So I was lucky to participate in the anthology design.
Design concept
To collect and arrangement the material we found Mr Yang's works, mainly painted animals and plants. Seemingly random writing, but adornment appearing natural. Optional contains a rigorous, the rhythm of the life is opportunely. Whether layout, with ink, colouring or seal, it is showing the vitality. According to the characteristics of the traditional Chinese painting, we decided to the style of the works are consistent.

(the cover and the back )
First, the cover used Mr Yang's painting "Shuang Xi". Given priority to, the background tonal used gray moves in it. Application of typical Chinese ink, wipe and dye characteristics. The whole apply to give a restore ancient ways, we feeling it.
Second, collocation of the traditional Chinese calligraphy font and typical Chinese elements- Ruyi and Auspicious cloud, carry bright whole picture visual effect. Finally back cover also used a famous Chinese painting to give priority to. With cover corresponding. In order not to the leading role, especially the back cover painting dim the color of the ink, and use the ink circle to highlight characteristics.
Inside pages also used Mr Yang's artworks, because the characteristics of Chinese painting is combined with ink and water, not strong or light. So in order to highlight his artworks, we with different forms of ink to foil. The main background are used white. Earlier we used black ink, made after the effect that appear too inanimate, and then adjust into shallow. And we used black contrast color red to make the inside pages borders, and at the same time, it also marks of the painting seal consistent.
A total of 44 pages picture book in here, not only description one by one, with a few pages of the representative to explain.





I thought it is traditional design works. Most of the time I often commercial purposes of the design more. This is the memory of a deceased painter, for publishing, so the design documents to need to use a CMYK format, resolution 300 dpi, but also to make 3 mm border. It is use 200 grams of glossy paper, such colour effect is good.
In general, the simple is beautiful, contracted and not simple, use the method of chinese paintings like white fill in the picture. To design inside pages, use the ink to form the format design. This design is a point on feeling it. And also for the future lay the good teaching practice base.
