Russian designer Ilya Shapko has come up with a series of vibrant, neon-style artworks using gradients, blend modes, and transparency in Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop.
The project, titled ‘Fantasy Light’, showcases colorful illustrated shapes intricately placed over each other to form abstract animals and objects against dark backgrounds. Shapko’s inspiration for this project came from oriental symbols and images from Russian fairy tales and other folklore. Check out the illustrations below.
