Originally created with a hand-drawn pen and ink outline, then coloured.
Large Illustration using mixed media.
Both watercolour and digital techniques were used to create a simple but effective visual.
These are four out of five illustrations, originally drafted to be viewed on each floor of an educational building as students exited the lift. The illustrations are hand drawn with pen and ink.

A promotional image capturing the way that mental health issues can make you feel. This was created digitally. many people have said it has captured how they feel, internally really well.
