Lemme tell you… let. me. TELLLLL. you. I’ve wanted to do a beer can design for the longest timeeeeeee. Every time I’d have one, it would get cancelled or ghosted, 😩😅, but the absolutely fantastical Melinda reached out for our first official freelance-collab with her band’s own beer! Whattttt?! So flippin’ awesome! This was an amazing project to work on! • And, when I really get to dive into the world of art nouveau [my hero, Alphonse Mucha], my heart soars. And, tarot, and flowers, and just all of it! If you didn’t notice, we played off the beer can design for the Say What You Mean Single Cover. A little bit of a mini-illustration-Marvel-Universe [as ya’ll know I love if you’ve seen my Stage AE posters]. Both the hero of this illustration [which happens to be the amazing, Melinda herself!] and the “Hear No Evil” of the “Say What You Mean” Cover have a lightning bolt necklace – which that in itself has a symbolic meaning to Melinda. ⚡️⚡️ [check out the last image/video - flashes and then fades] • I’ll admit I’m having a difficult time wanting to open up my gorgeous 6-pack. I’m that kid with all the amazing stickers but they’re not stuck on anything because I don’t want to ruin their beauty hahaha! But, it’s happening! And, the best part is you can, too! Head over to Melinda and the Night Sky’s Page OR the amazing brewers, North Country Brewing Co. for all the deets! Grab ‘em while they last! They are a sight to see in person 💖 • [I do need to take photos when it’s much brighter – but the real life look at these cans are amazing. Lovingly nestled next to my bourbon and whiskey 💖 ] • #matns #melindaandthenightsky #beercandesign #lager #designer #graphicdesign #ninazivkovic #illustrator #artdirector #pittsburgh #pittsburghillustrators #inspiration #designerlife #moody #designinspiration #badass #dailysketch #womenofillustration #ladieswhodesign #freelance #flowers #portrait #mucha #artnouveau (at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEvYl1dj3Xb/?igshid=5lboesatxob9
