SLAVIC FEAST

My project is a series of gift cards illustrations on the theme of the Slavic Festival of Ivan Kupala. Initially, before the spread of Christianity, the Slavic Feast  was associated with the summer solstice -June 21. According to the peasant legend, Ivana Kupala, the shortest night, evil spirits - witches, werewolves, snakes, mermaids and lord of rivers - cannot sleep, being energised and particularly active. 

   Based on these legends, I have drawn 12 illustrations in Vector graphics. The project used stylised Slavic ornaments and folk costumes which complemented the drawings and gave national style.
