I don’t know if this ever went anywhere, but here is an illustration/brand concept I worked on several years ago for a sparkling iced tea/energy tea concept.

Illustration of a hand with long red nails squeezing a lemon. Sort of has an airbrushed look to it, but it was all digitally painted. Don’t worry, not AI.

My creative process.

Very rough sketches done in Figma, hand drawn with a mouse which gives them a very child like quality.

Final illustrations featuring a heat pump, exterior of a home, and an electric van, all drawn in a mid-century illustration style with three colors and some halftone textures.
