Illustrated Bin Wraps

Who says a trash can can’t be the prettiest thing on the block? For the Lincoln Park Chamber of Commerce, I illustrated four bin wraps for Clark Street and Lincoln Avenue, each one built around a different flower: buttercups, coneflowers, poppies, and black-eyed Susans. The style takes its cues from the Arts & Crafts movement, with birds and pollinators tucked in among the blooms, all in the Chamber’s brand palette. They’re a small piece of public art that also asks people, very politely, to toss their trash.
