"Happy Leaf" Landscape

The creation of the Happy Leaf (fictional brand) is a bit of an accident. I made a draft for my planned rebrand of myself and forgot I rounded the stroke at the letter "e". No matter what I just did, it's a happy (no pun intended) accident for me.

For the landscape, I was inspired from the "fake 3D" After Effects posts that I tried to make a scene for the base before animating 3D, but I didn't actually animate it. I think the complexity for the software I want to animate (e.g. Hitfilm Express) makes my laptop not handling it well, while there are plugins for Figma to animate it, it's flawed enough that I wouldn't use it for this complexity. The font used in the shot is called HK Grostek, it's a nice font actually. I made this artwork in 2:1 aspect ratio because of the planned animation, but you know the reason why it didn't happen and now the aspect ratio is stuck with me for now.

At the last minute before posting this, I know this shot wouldn't fit in Dribbble's nature so I framed it and made it look more like an advertisement. Not the artwork I'm highly proud of, but it's atmospherically nice and calm.
