Boxaphobia

Illustration, 2021
Supervised by Ned Culic

The brief was to illustrate a phobia and package it. I chose the fear of insects and applied my pattern to an insect net.

I first used photoshop brushes to illustrate the insects. I wanted a variety of insects of different colours and sizes that I could later form into a pattern. Although focusing on a phobia, I didn’t want to show the insects in a scary way. After creating my pattern, I applied it to an image of an insect net.
