85 illustration techniques and styles in Midjourney

Hello everyone! My name is Ilya, I work as a UX/UI designer at Projector design. And today, together with the team, we are launching a series of weekly educational posts about styles in design with examples in Figma. It will be interesting:). And the first hero of our rubric will be Pop Art.

So, let’s start. Pop art is an artistic movement that combines the fine arts and British-American pop culture of the 50s and 60s of the XX century. From English popular art — «popular art», and pop also means «sharp clap». Therefore, the term «pop art» has a double meaning: «art for the masses» and something shocking. These two words perfectly convey the main concept of this direction.

Excursion into history

In many ways, the emergence of pop art is a reaction to abstract expressionism, which has been popular since the 1940s. Expressionism was non-objective, complex and non-obvious for a simple layman. Artists and designers expressed their «inner self» through it, and often only other artists could understand this expression of themselves. Therefore, it is quite logical that he was replaced by a style, the symbol of which was simplicity and clarity.

The Pop Art movement originated in London in 1952, its founders were the artists Andy Warhol and Jasper Johns. They actively disseminated their ideas in the Independent Group, a community of young artists, critics, architects and writers (an association whose members explored the impact of technology, popular culture and advertising on contemporary art), which, in addition to them, included Richard Hamilton, Nigel Henderson, John McHale, Eduardo Paolozzi and William Turnbull, who subsequently held exhibitions with the first examples of Pop Art.

A landmark event was the exhibition «This is Tomorrow», which took place in Hollywood in 1956. The paintings featured Hollywood movie stars in movie stills with magnification. The exhibition attracted a large number of visitors and aroused a clear interest among many graduates of the art school who decided to join this movement. And the collage (second photo) by artist Richard Hamilton «What makes our homes today so different, so attractive?» became a symbol of the new style.

After some time, pop art will be dubbed «the art of social equality». This happened due to the fact that the direction has gained incredible popularity through consumer goods (various packs of chips, tubes of pasta, milk packages, etc.), that is, through goods that are available and necessary for a person of any social stratum.

Vibe pop art

The style is characterized by collage-style technique, photo printing, alternation of different textures, bright colors, as well as inscriptions in the form of a motto or slogan, thanks to which the picture almost does not differ from an advertising poster. Pop art is incredibly colorful and bright, manages to combine the incongruous and often balances on the verge of bad taste and vulgarity, but never crosses this line. There is a zest in the very inconsistency of pop art, it is always unexpectedly appropriate. Pop art is a style that can surprise. He instantly captures the viewer, catches his attention. Familiar images attract the eye, lead to slight confusion, fascinate. Rich colors and unusual shapes fill the space with energy, while repetitive design elements set the rhythm of modern life.

Blurring of the concept between «high» and «low» art. The foundation of the genre was the idea of ​​the absence of a hierarchy in culture. Inspiration could come from any source.

Emotional detachment. Although the approaches and works were very different, all of them were united by a cold distancing in emotions. Some see it as an acceptance by the popular world, others as a shocked retreat.

Lack of deep meaning. Simplicity is both a strength and something for which the direction has been severely criticized. The meaning of pop art lies on the surface.

Pop art in design today

Artists and designers who adhere to pop art have managed to create something that remains relevant in different time periods and social norms. In an era when digital technologies have completely taken over our lives, pop art has become something for granted, its characteristics are ideally suited to our current environment. Perhaps today, more than ever, the movement is absolutely ubiquitous, partly because of nostalgia and partly because of its particularly captivating aesthetic.

You can see this style applied in many products and interfaces around you:

Pattern Styles

We talk about 19 main styles and their main features.

Looks for great beauty everywhere, works on rationality of consumption.

The manner in which the artist created the image of the subject and the way he expressed his vision determine the style of the drawing.

The ability to navigate different styles will help bring your ideas to life, because each direction conveys a message with a certain intonation.

In this article we will analyze and show:

Technique is determined by how the artist worked with form and elements, color, composition, how he conveyed the anatomy of a person or animal.

A sketch is a quick drawing without detailed details. It is performed to, for example, sketch a situation, setting, show a concept or idea.

Most often, sketches are drawn with a pen, pencil, charcoal, pastel, markers or.

From English, doodle is translated as “doodle”, and this reflects the nature of the style. Doodles are drawings with arbitrary composition and many details. They can depict something concrete or abstract.

Markers are often used for doodling.

This style includes still lifes, portraits and landscapes made with continuous lines of the same color. In such drawings there are no shading, shadows and colors: the volume and texture of objects arise due to the thickness and brightness of the lines.

For line drawing, a graphite pencil, pen, pen or black marker is suitable.

Geometric style drawings are made up of polygons. It can be portraits of people, animals or patterns — they all look like complex «calculated» designs.

Pencils, pens and drawing tools — liners or ink liner are suitable for such drawing.

Drawings in a realistic style show reality as accurately as possible. Artists copy the shape of the object and its details, work a lot with shading and tone to give the image volume.

It is convenient to work out the shadows in realistic drawings with graphite pencils.

Drawings in a hyper-realistic style are easy to confuse with photographs — they look so accurate, detailed and voluminous. They are distinguished from realistic images by even more careful study of shadows and reflections.

Drawings are made with simple or colored pencils, acrylics or watercolors.

In the drawings, the artist does not show the exact image of a person or animal, but his character. As a rule, the proportions of the faces and bodies of people and animals are exaggerated: for example, in anime and manga styles, people have very small noses and lips, and wide cheekbones.

Any medium is suitable for drawing.

The basis of typographic drawings is inscriptions and letters. Calligraphic or freehand handwriting fills in the shapes of objects like patterns. This style is closely related to .

Drawings can be done with any tool, but to make the lines accurate, pens, ink or markers are often used.

Drawings are used for various work tasks: for example, to study, show scientific findings or record facts. These tasks determine the style of drawing.

Academic or classical style is the basis of art and architecture education. Thanks to him, students learn the principles of constructing simple and complex forms, develop imaginative thinking and skills in working with tonality and volume.

As a rule, educational academic drawings are made with a simple pencil.

The most common subject of academic drawings is the plaster head of ancient sculpture Image: Paula Julija Savaja / Behance

drawings show the structure of an object, a plan or a diagram of a process. The task of the image is to demonstrate and explain the connections between the parts of the whole. Drawings in a diagrammatic style are needed in science and education, engineering and industrial design. They can accurately reproduce all the details of the subject or, conversely, be schematic, and individual parts will have captions and explanations.

As a rule, diagrammatic drawings are made with pens and pencils. They can also be drawn with chalk or a marker on a blackboard.

Technical drawings depict objects in their actual proportions to show the design idea. Such graphics are done before design drawings are created: they help to visualize the future part of the car, garment or interior and, if necessary, improve the concept.

In technical drawing, complex drawing tools are not used: projections and volumes are built by hand with a pencil or a liner. If you need to show color solutions, they take watercolors.

Architectural drawings depict future or existing buildings. Thanks to such illustrations, one can understand the aesthetics, the main accent features and the position of the building in the environment.

Architectural drawing is closer to restrained sketching than to precise drawing: it is done with any graphic means — markers, pencils, charcoal, watercolor, ink.

In the fashion industry, designers draw clothes and accessories on elongated and angular human figures. The drawings look schematic, bright and at the same time airy. The main emphasis is on the texture and folds of textiles, on colors, patterns and the main details of the image.

For drawing in fashion style, you can take acrylic, watercolor and markers.

Due to the ban on photography and video filming, a special kind of drawings appeared in the courtrooms — court sketches. As a rule, with their help, artists capture the dynamics of the process and the mood of the participants. The authors document the situation very quickly, not carefully, the composition sometimes combines several scenes at once.

To draw court sketches, you need pastel pencils or charcoal.

Visual storytelling, like oral storytelling, can be built allegorically or straightforwardly, in the format of a fairy tale or satire. And the way the author wants to convey the plot to the viewer determines the style of the drawing.

If the drawings do not show objects of the real world, but express the idea, atmosphere or character of the hero through lines, color, chiaroscuro, textures, this is an abstract style. Such drawing is also called objectless or non-figurative.

You can use any materials and tools that help express the idea.

Drawings in the style are light, carefree, the plot in them is fabulous. Images can be detailed or, on the contrary, as simplified as possible, bright or pastel. An artist can reproduce real objects quite accurately, but they will definitely contain fictitious elements. This style is often used in illustrations for children’s books.

It is worth using “airy” materials: watercolor, colored pencils, pastels.

Drawings in a naive or primitive style are simplified images and unpretentious plots. They have a distorted perspective, as if the image has only one plan. Details are drawn evenly throughout the composition, and there are no chiaroscuro and subtle elaboration of volume.

Naive style requires clear contours, so acrylic, oil pastels, pencils and gouache are suitable for it.

Oil pastel drawing of a cat: no fine details, and the background does not look like a second plan Image: Justas Jelisejevas / Behance

The facial expressions of people are exaggerated in the drawings in the caricature style, there is no detail. The plot is always based on a social or political problem, and the characters are characteristic or known in society. The author of the drawing expresses his idea through humor, satire and exaggeration.

Caricature drawings are usually monochrome and done with ink.

Drawings in a «bad» or «childish» style look as if the author knows nothing about technique, anatomy rules and the laws of building perspective. Their plots can be banal or strange, compositions can be unpretentious, and colors can be bright and flat. The author of a bad drawing expressively conveys his idea through the rejection of conformal aesthetics and apparent amateurism.

It is best to draw with «children’s» materials: colored pencils, gouache, felt-tip pens.
