FCP ARTWORK
Here's a selection of images we created for First Choice Packaging in Fremont, Ohio. The artwork was generated digitally from photos from the Topaz Impressions 2 app. A total of 29 pieces of art were created to showcase their engineering, manufacturing, fulfillment, shipping, equipment, and employees. The final art was printed by Dr. Graphx onto canvas and stretched and mounted onto 34" x 46" wooden stretchers. You can read more of the story behind this project in DESIGN TALK.
