This is an illustration by Chris Kim. It was not intended for any commercial purposes. However, there were many things that attracted me to this illustration. Firstly, the spirals at the bottom of the tree grabbed my attention, which led to me to the person sitting at the foot of the tree and to the spirals of the trunk. The consistency in the shapes and the legato rhythm gives it a lot of visual interest. The bottom spiral is also emphasized due to its white color since everything else is a monochromatic red. The person breaking the spirals causes contrast in shape as well, which creates another emphasis. Along with the small visual emphases, there is a lot of unity within the design as well. There is unity in color, continuation, and repetition of elements.
