For this project I wanted to create something that was completely its own and utilize other artists around me. I brought in an illustrator, Kevin Sterjo, to help me develop this vision I had. I had this idea that I wanted to create a sake brand that was created by a Japanese family after immigrating to Hawaii in the 50's. The name Han Han came from the idea of being half and half. Half Japanese, half Hawaiian. With this brand I wanted to create three different bottles that incorporated the culture of both Hawaii and Japan. So in one bottle you will see volcanoes to represent Hawaii and cherry blossoms to symbolize Japan. For another you will find lava and rice fields. And lastly tiki heads along with traditional Japanese style clouds.
