The journal

Color, water and the vertical frame

Practical editorial guides to designing, evaluating and exporting aquatic artwork for small screens.

Composition

Build the subject around the clock, icon field and crop—not around an empty canvas.

Color

Control value and proportion so three luminous hues create depth instead of visual noise.

Technique

Reflections become convincing when they respond to plane, movement and light—not when they mirror everything equally.

Mobile design

Negative space, contrast and preview testing matter more than an empty-looking background.

Art direction

Reduce detail by preserving the visual idea, not by blurring the entire artwork.

File guide

Pixel dimensions describe a file; they do not guarantee a perfect crop or a particular display experience.
