LIBERTY OF LONDON
I was asked by the prestigious department store Liberty of London to illustrate their Summer 2010 theme, “Flower Power”.
I created this illustration based around the 60′s “Summer of Love”. The girls with flowers in this illustration represent the strength of the peace movement.
Objects that represent Liberty and its history are also incorporated into the illustration. Visual references to the original wooden animal statues (which can still be seen at the London department store), the famous Liberty building, and the Liberty print patterns are interwoven in the illustration.
