The beginning of this painting comes from a simple paradox: to give real history to a club that never existed. In 2024, the illustrator plans to prepare a pop-up exhibition featuring football. Most of the exhibition structure was completed by inventing a football club. In the early days of creation, the author drafted the team's emblem, a fictitious league badge, a design for home and away jerseys, and a design of the team sponsor. The aim was to enhance the authenticity of the team and the club through more detail. Considering that the presentation of goods requires constant introduction of concepts in order to facilitate public acceptance of the limitations of the exhibition theme, the author hopes to complete an illustration on the stadium in the second phase. This stadium can be fictional or real. Through a large number of characters, connect a vivid and realistic scene, such as a billboard on the side of the pitch and the fans who rush into the pitch. Both the joy of the victor and the frustration of the loser can help the audience deepen the authenticity of the fictional football team. This was supposed to be a contradictory relationship, but the deception the author wanted was playful. It is believed that in each person's spiritual world there is a scenario which can be competition, game, opposition, or balance. The overall design of the olddog football club is derived from a long-eared dog, including the image of the team in the picture. The other team in the stadium is from Borussia Dortmund in the German Bundesliga. This team was chosen as the team in the picture because the author usually uses yellow as the main color. After 1 year of painting, the stadium illustration in the form of 12 drawings was finally completed. By creating a club from scratch, the author hopes to explore a deeper question: What makes a place sacred and gives a group of people a sense of belonging? The answer is not a concrete stadium or a lighted lane, but stories, emotions and shared belief. Any ordinary corner can become a stage with enthusiasm. In an age of information explosion and mixed reality, creating a purely spiritual home that can accommodate emotions has always been a source of motivation for illustrators.
這幅畫的起點來自一個簡單的悖論：為一支從未存在的俱樂部，賦予真實的歷史。
2024年，插畫作者計劃準備一個以足球為主題的快閃式展覽。通過虛構一支足球俱樂部完成大部分的展覽結構，在創作初期，作者起草了球隊的隊徽、虛構的聯賽徽章、主客場球衣的設計、球隊贊助商的設計，旨在通過更多的細節來增強球隊和俱樂部的真實性。考慮到商品的呈現形式需要不停的介紹理念，才能方便大眾接受展覽主題的局限性，作者希望在第二階段完成一個關於體育場的插畫創作。這個體育場可以是虛構的，也可以是真實的。通過大量的人物形象，連接出一個生動逼真的場景，比如場邊的廣告牌，沖進球場的球迷。勝利者的喜悅和失敗者的沮喪都可以幫助觀眾加深虛構足球隊的真實性。這本是一種矛盾的關系，但作者想要的欺騙感是玩味的。相信在每個人的精神世界裏，也會存在這樣一個場景，它可以是競爭，可以是博弈，可以是對立，也可以是平衡。
olddog football club 的整體設計來源自一直長耳狗，包括畫面中的球隊吉祥物的形象也出自這只狗。球場中的另一支比賽的隊伍來自德國甲級聯賽的多特蒙德，選擇這支球隊作為畫面中的比賽隊伍是因為作者常用黃色作為主色調，經過1年的時間繪製，終於完成了以12張圖為拼接形式的球場插畫。
通過從零開始創建一個俱樂部，作者希望探索一個更深層次的問題：是什麼讓一個地方變得神聖，給一群人一種歸屬感？答案不是水泥球場，也不是燈光草坪，而是故事、情感和共同的相信。任何一個平凡的角落，都可以充滿熱情成為舞臺。在信息爆炸、虛實交織的時代，創造一個可以容納情感的純粹精神家園一直是插畫作者所追求的動力來源。
