Context: for this university project, I wanted to create a design that could be stamped on t-shirts and tote bags.

For this xylography university project I wanted to capture the essence of my region, Andalucía, so I used tiles, patterns and different ornaments as a way of visually representing the sounds and “fuss” that characterizes it.

I used three arrays to create contrast and volume, making the letters stand out while overlapping with the layers below. The colors are vibrant and resemble the ones traditionally used in the tiles.

While designing this illustration, I kept in mind that I wanted to create something impactful that I could later use in t-shirts and tote bag designs. So, once I was done with my university assignment, I continued working on it and sold a few of my stamped bags.
