'Oceanic Feeling' Wine label
Client: Garage Project
Date: 2020
Garage Project approached me to create wine label artwork and accompanying promotional poster for their 2019 vintage release 'Oceanic Feeling'. A hazy white Sauvignon Blanc fermented on Pinot Gris skins, "the wine is a vibrant energetic expression of the fruit, and place it's from - wine from the Aotearoa, the Pacific..." The design features a hand-lettered title and swirling illustration of grapevines morphed with the ocean.
