She/her - Why did you create this work?
At the beginning of 2024, St Vincent commissioned me to design labels for six wines. The concept was to create artistic, slightly abstract landscapes that would reflect the distinct characteristics of each grape variety. We developed detailed descriptions for each wine, using adjectives and comparisons to capture the flavors. Based on these, I created illustrations, and six of them were selected. - How were your illustrations used?
My illustrations were used on wine labels, with carefully selected textured paper to enhance the artistic effect of the designs. Together, all the labels form a harmonious collection, reflecting the seasons and the unique characteristics of each wine variety - What materials and techniques did you use?
All the illustrations were created in Adobe Fresco using the so-called Live Brushes. I aimed for a painterly and natural effect, with a strong emphasis on improvisation and spontaneity. As a result, the labels were not further refined or edited in any way after their initial creation. - Was this project commissioned?
