Anjovis, salt and olives
Surface pattern design exercise. Anjovis is a little salted fish that you can find lurking at supermarkets alla around nordic countries. Here it happens to be spiced with some olives and salt.
Left and middle - with so small changes to the illustration I created five different designs of the fish. I really like the shape of this one. It's very fishy. On right there is different color version from the pattern.
Here is a product mockup of this design.
