    Watercolor Food Illustration for Seafood Restaurant Branding

    For this project, I created a comprehensive collection of hand-painted watercolor illustrations aimed at high-end seafood restaurants, culinary brands, and artisan food packaging. The goal was to capture the sophisticated, authentic vibe of coastal dining.

    I acted as the lead illustrator, painting every element (oysters, shrimp, fish, and garnishes) by hand to preserve the raw texture of watercolor. I then digitized and cleaned the artwork to make it highly versatile for print and digital use.
    How It Can Be Used: • Restaurant branding & menu design • Premium food packaging & wine labels • Editorial design for recipe books & magazines • Seamless patterns for wrapping paper and textiles
    If you are looking for custom watercolor illustrations to elevate your brand or packaging, feel free to invite me to your job!

    I led the visual development from initial sketches to production-ready files.
    Each element was hand-painted using a digital watercolor technique, with subtle lines added as a nod to Toile de Jouy.
    I engineered complex seamless repeating blocks and developed coordinating companion patterns.
    The collection successfully combines traditional Toile de Jouy-style landscapes, lush vines, and nostalgic tennis court motifs.
