The One About

The rugby player who, instead of drinking alcohol, drinks through pints of milk as his initiation to the team. The management coach who hangs up her strategies in a crucial negotiation. The armed policeman who pursues peace. These are just some of the incredible stories captured in The One About.

As part of the team at Sublime my role was to conceptualise the unseen work of these heroes of faith by creating a string of illustrations that illuminate the quirks of each story. Working with a tight colour palette, and in partnership with LICC’s creative team, the challenge was to create simple and effective illustrations that could be used in print and online.
