The snakes, adorned with plum blossoms, orchids, and chrysanthemum, represent longevity and prosperity, while the peony flowers symbolise wealth. Gold coins, ingots, and lunar lanterns with lucky longevity knots complete the composition, set against a backdrop of clouds.

The project involved crafting a series of humorous, mugshot-style portraits for 24 different chicken breeds, each with its own distinct personality. Research into the breeds and collaboration with the client helped shape the characters, ensuring their traits were visually compelling and integral to the gameplay.

Bill Sanderson for Old Glasgow Whisky

Bill Sanderson for Old Glasgow Whisky (illustrator, Phosphor Art)

 

Phosphor's Bill Sanderson recently worked on a label for Old Glasgow whisky, a brand which celebrates the history and heritage of distilling in and around Glasgow.

The label, created by Bill in his signature scratchboard style, re-interprets the Glasgow Coat of Arms. The original coat of arms features a fish, a tree, a bell and a bird - all symbols related to legends about Saint Mungo, the patron saint of Glasgow. Bill's artwork features these same symbols, along with some iconic Glasgow architecture. Barley (to represent whisky) and thistles (to represent Scotland) have been added around the slogan 'Let Glasgow Flourish'.
