The Importance of Vacation

Editorial illustrations by Andriy Muzichka that tell us about the benefits of vacation.

I love to take vacations several times a year. All the impressions and influences help me to find new motivation. Andriy Muzichka, an Ukrainian graphic designer and illustrator has created a series of editorial illustrations for an article that tells us about the importance of vacation. At the end of the original article you can also make a test to find out which type of vacation is best suited to your personality.
