The textile I created for this package was inspired by a photo I took in a sunflower field. I brought the photo into Illustrator and edited it to appear as a digital illustration. I then layered the sunflower to create a textile. I love this textile for this product because it is fun, youthful, and vibrant. The target audience is young women, and sunflowers are so prevalent right now because of the numerous fields popping up in the North East.

This design started from my first attempt with using Illustrator. I have never had a class or any training with the application, so this was from when I began to teach myself. What I love about this package design is that it is so unexpected from what you would normally think of when you hear "American Wheat Ale." I think this broadens the market to young people because they want to hold something different and be apart of new trends.
This wine was inspired by my stay at the Goose Rocks Lighthouse off the coast of Maine. Like the BOLD package design, this was created by transforming a photograph of mine into an illustration. The typography I chose was meant to reflect a nautical theme and make the wine feel as timeless as the lighthouse.
