These are a couple of illustrations i did for a holiday keepsake tin for Cracker Barrel through Brand Castle. The keepsake tin is a lunchbox that contains a suggar cookie mix. I was given the task of creating a design that features a snowman on one side and Santa on the other side of the lunchbox.
When I brainstormed for the snowman, I was inspired by Fred Astaire's "Top Hat, White Tie and Tails" song and dance video where he was wearing a top hat and dancing with a cane.
Some initial thumbnail sketches...
For the other side, client wanted a Santa Clause holding up a letter that says "Santa I really did try!"
