As I was leaving North Carolina to move back to New York, I made the illustration on the left to represent the beautiful, nature focused state that I learned to love a whole lot. After posting it on Instagram, a friend named Chris Sarette was opening a bottle shop in Charlotte at the time. It’s now called “Frenchy’s Sip & Shop”. Chris acquired this illustration from me to have it on their first t-shirt. I was also able to help out with some on site signage for the shop as well.
