Spectrum is a digital illustration that depicts Japanese street fashion in the style of Japanese anime. The work avoids photorealism and applies vivid colors in a flat manner that still appears optically natural. The background represents the neon lights of Tokyo, with forms boldly simplified for a sharp, flat and luminous effect. Elements of Western graphic design are combined with Japanese character illustration. Spectrum was drawn with Adobe Photoshop CC. The intent is to make the style clear to audiences inside and outside Japan.
