I am pretty lucky to live near (probably) the best greengrocer in London, and for the past few years, I have been going over there at least once a week to gaze at the mind-blowing range of beautiful fruits and vegetables. That is what mostly inspired this personal project, and that’s pretty much what it’s all about: I have been picking green foods I found interesting and inspiring, and creating characters based on those. Simple!

It took a couple of months to put this little set together using just watercolor and paper. Hope to continue exploring this idea in the nearest future!
