Enlarge your mind with these vague old testament references. You Noah’s Ark wannabe. These are brand new, made for a meat market / deli in Toronto. A bunch of people worked together to bring this together, including a designer, a creative director, an art director, an illustrator, and to the most important degree(?), the client. Maybe the Bible had a little bit to do with it.

If you’re looking for a source, or some direction in the world, you’d me smart to peek at some of the most gorgeous religious illustrations in history: the Lindisfarne Gospels of northern England. I’ve included a couple down there in the gallery, take a peek at the full pages and a little bit of detail. Of course nothing is compared to seeing them irl.

The illustrations done for this Caplansky’s triad are by Toronto resident illustrator Geoff Donovan. He’s currently got a twitter account but no portfolio site. What a crime!

The tip for these illustrations came from none other than that best resource for Canadian design, the Canadian Design Resource. This post you’re looking at is part of the World Famous Design Junkies food category.
