Illustration for invitation 40th birthday party

October 19, 2017

Picture 1 of 3 - Illustration and invitation for my 40th birthday party

Picture 2 of 3 - Illustration and invitation for my 40th birthday party

Picture 3 of 3 - Illustration and invitation for my 40th birthday party

Inspired on some artworks I was working on at the time, the illustration was sketched with pencil before it was digitally designed in Adobe Illustrator.

It depicts various visual iconic elements that often can be found in my artworks. The shoe (All Star classic sneakers) represent a laid-back attitude. The rocket is a metaphor for the rest of my life, that is just started. The birds house represents the concept of 'home' where I can recharge my batteries and decide which next steps I should take.

How can I help you?

Illustration 'Courage' is a commission for Dutch styling and design agency MOED-CSD. The word 'moed' translates in English as 'courage'. The colourful illustration features two (cartoon) characters, placed adjacent and in the composition of a playing card. Because 'doing business is all just a game', right?

The two cartoon characters are human canon balls as a metaphor for courage. Around them are various objects and 'props', which belong to the two characters and describe their character.

The commission started as a printed phone cover.
