Knowing that the birds would be grouped together in the end, I created six separate ravens with enough wiggle room for Brandever to arrange them in any composition that worked with their design.

They created a beautifully printed and haunting group of birds that gives this wine bottle a striking appearance. Brandever used the white areas of the illustrations to print a blue foil and emboss the feathers to give this bottle an Edgar Allan Poe look.

The drawings themselves were done using a brush, fountain pen, and ink. I focused on the detail of the feathers while keeping stylistically loose. This sketchy look allows for a more organic result for the blue foil. Some drawings were less detailed to allow for some depth in the label.
