absolut triptych

Beacause she's one of my favourite people at work and because she's a collector of all things ABSOLUT, these are a series of illustrations which I'm planning on framing and presenting to my friend Katija, who's leaving the beautiful west coast for the freezing cold winters of montreal. Ahhhh, the things people do for love...








1. Reminiscent of the ABSOLUT CITRON ads, this one sets her fiery red hair and curly locks (from which she gets her nicknames 'Red' and 'Rusty') on an olive green background - her favourite colour and the colour of everything currently residing in her living room.

2. Beacause she's an interior decorator. And because cool blues paired with dark, rich chocolate browns are the new black & white, dontcha' know?

3. An unabashed spin-off of the ABSOLUT 24th ads that run during the holidays where you see a woman carrying boxes of holiday gifts home in the snow. I went with for the sappy entimental cheese and depcted her on moving day, as she sets out on a new adventure in Montreal. Certainly not the greatest or most striking illustration, but hey, it does the trick.
