Contest Brief

We are in the process of finding artwork for a whiskey label. The whiskey is the first of a series that we are making with local breweries. It will be made at a small distillery in Massachusetts. The theme for all of the whiskeys is "Skeletons", where the intent is to generate images (nominally black and white) that can be incorporated on our label. One approach under consideration is that of dias los muertos style artwork, or artwork utilizing skeletons as the characters.

Our first (of at least three) labels is going to be for a Mayflower whiskey (the name of the brewery is Mayflower). We envision a drawing of the Mayflower (or some part of it, such as the crow's nest or helm) manned by skeletons. Please reference the attached images of the Mayflower.

Note that we are looking for tasteful artwork. We are ONLY LOOKING FOR THE GRAPHIC ARTWORK, NO label designs, NO representations on bottles and NO text or names. Although I referenced dias los muertos, the level of detail will be relatively low because the image will be reduced to one that is only a few inches in height.

Hello. Will the skeletons manning the Mayflower wear pirate gear? Thank you.

  I'd prefer just plain skeletons, no pirates, no pilgrims.

Please note, we are also more interested in black/white drawings. No clipart, and all work must be original (not copied from elsewhere, not 'open source').
