artist's comments:
I've always had a fascination with product packaging.

Once opened flat, we can see the hidden die cuts and graphic symbols used by the printer. We get a glimpse of the underside that holds our intriguingly over consuming society together.

It's really a treat to retrace these packaging templates and superimpose overly sexual parodies of my illustrations with  messages promoting the "ultimate marketing promise" - which is how I see packaging presented to the masses.

It's also a great visual exercise that forces me to exercise all of my graphic abilities.
