The amazing people at SCM Transportation have a great program they run every Valentine's Day called "Paul's Ride." A gift of $30 underwrites round trip transportation for a rider to visit his or her sweetheart in the hospital or nursing home and $100 covers five round trips.
This year, SCM asked me to create an illustration for their Valentine's Day card to support Paul's Ride. I had fun creating a custom heart box filled with little chocolates in the shape of the SCM vans. To create my reference for this illustration I had to take chocolates from different boxes and make the little ruffled cups from muffin tins. You can view some of this process work on my twitter and instagram @LNDstudio.
I hope everyone has a Happy Valentine's Day with those who you love, doing the things that you love to do!!
