When local independent artists Benjamino and meadowhip teamed up on their dreamy collab On Repeat, they approached me to create a bespoke illustration for a limited-run of merchandice — something playful to contrast the song’s more somber tone.  

I pitched a retro-style coffee cup mascot, wine in one hand, cigarette alight in the other, set around the lyric “I hope this vibe is just passing through”. The design was screen printed in forest green on t-shirts and totes by Proof Printing in Wollongong, who also captured the styled merch shots.
