I illustrated and designed the 2016 Lady Godiva tin, inspired by her story of beauty and strength. Drawing from nature, architecture, and the spirit of her legend, I created an ornate, storybook-like illustration where Lady Godiva’s flowing hair symbolizes both softness and power. With hand-crafted detail and a personal finish, the design evokes joy, strength, and her enduring legacy.
