Oh goodness. I know I've spoken about this before but the link between art and cacao is so important - art and cacao are both inspirational, universally loved, and connectors of the world, so it's natural to bring them together.
This weekend sweetriot hosted our Featured Artist #1, Mike Hammer from Toronto. Suzanne McCarthey, our lovely graphic designer from Boston, also joined us on Saturday. The three of us spent the weekend at the MoMA Design Store where sweetriot was featured. Mike is quite the sales guy - sometimes people wouldn't believe us that he was the artist. ;)
Here are some photos above including two which show the real art behind Flavor 50 and Flavor 65 -- yes, those are real paintings reproduced on the tins -- they are not just graphic designs. :) Soon we will be announcing our finalists for the next edition of the tins...
Just want to say thanks to you guys at Sweet Riot, especially Sarah and Joe, for shorlisting me to the last two finalists to be the new featured artist.
Thanks!
Blue
