I was commissioned by Scottish Ballet to make a character for their Healing Arts Scotland campaign. They wanted a friendly looking character in blue, with some Scottish connotation and a heart.

I sent these initial varied characters so SB could narrow it down to 2 to be developed. They requested a brighter blue and the use of yellow.

SB requested some different colour variations and more sporty shoes.
