Spring Scene Hidden Objects Poster for World Vision
Client: World Vision ·
My most recent project for World Vision was an intricate spring scene, full of life and action, which was used to create a poster bounceback (the gift that a sponsor can send to their sponsored child). I needed to include many hidden objects and "can you spot" details throughout the piece, as well as connect four separate scenes (garden, meadow, lake and forest) with multiple families and springy nature and wildlife elements as well. Flowers, sunshine, animal babies and butterflies... a perfect project for cold January days! So happy to know it is now in the hands of kids around the world.
