Just as every artwork can not be a masterpiece, the same goes for every brewed creation. This was a design I did for Warped Wing Brewery for a beer that retired prematurely this past summer. Before it left the building, we were able to get our hands on a growler of it to use as a marinade on some beef and tofu…YUM!
Line sketch and the beginnings with some ink. The image was inspired by the small, orchid-like flowers on Rosemary plants.
Basic inking complete, going back to enhance the lines and give them more substance.
Inking complete.
The image was colored using acrylics thinned with water.
