Finally finished “The Key.” ❤️ Swipe to see the layers and how this one came together.
I really wanted to lean into that deep red (which is actually a much nicer dark orange in real life) to make the moment feel a bit more intense. It’s always a little stressful at the beginning when it’s just messy shapes, but I’m happy with how it turned out. And I had fun with some of the abstractions like the thick yellow strip of paint that leads to her hair and the little splatters or yellow and white.

Let me know what you think of the final look! 🎨

I only have a few of these business cards left so I figured I'd record this video to show them off. It's still my favorite design to date and really shows what I can do with art, graphic design, and print. :)
