Packaging Design

 

Retro texture and bright colors abound for this piece I completed for Brew Dr. Kombucha. They asked me to illustrate peaches for a limited-edition “Just Peachy” flavor of kombucha and I had so much fun adding a feel of movement, and retro fun to the art! It’s a quite tasty beverage if you can find it in your local grocery store. I’m so thankful I got to work on this fun project, and that they even took the time to interview me for their blog!

So grateful to be included in a group of stellar artists from across the US asked to create art for Target’s rebranded art supply line. Each artist was tasked to create something in their style, with the actual art supplies being sold. I was assigned brush pens and tempera paint to play with. Available here & here.
