Dragon Boat Festival

When the Dragon Boat Festival was celebrated this year, I discovered that people's impression of the Dragon Boat Festival is only about the rice dumplings and dragon boats. They do not understand that the Dragon Boat Festival has many different customs and traditions. So I want to use my design to let everyone know about these lost rituals, such as ancestor worship. I combined the elements of Chinese auspicious clouds and shadow puppets in my paintings to make them more fluid and traditional. I also refer to Kuri's paintings. She is very good at using bright colors to increase the visual effect of the picture.

This series of illustrations is divided into six individual scenes:  worshiping the dragon ancestor, putting paper kites, paddling a dragon boat, eating delicacies, and lion dancing. My pieces are mainly used for packaging because everyone likes to send all kinds of gift boxes at the Dragon Boat Festival. So I want to use packaging as a carrier to let consumers know more about the traditional customs of the Dragon Boat Festival.
