    uniE621 Packaging Art for Northern Lights Toys
    Create-A-Lure lets kids paint their own fishing lures and then use them to catch real fish. It's a fun idea and if it existed when I was a kid, it might have got me into fishing. Northern Lights Toys wanted to update the artwork on some of their Create-A-Lure products. They had one illustration they really liked and wanted to update the rest to match. I was hired to create some new toy packaging artwork that matched their existing design. illustrator branding packagingart packaging illustration toys toyindustry
