The objective of this project was to craft a
conceptual cover that visually aligns with a recent news headline. Depicted in this
illustration is a hand emerging from a glass of wine, surreptitiously reaching into a
person's back pocket and retrieving money. The headline, "Cheers to Empty Pockets
Canada!", highlights the context of a 4.7% increase in alcohol tax, which is cleverly
reflected
in the imagery as the alcohol seemingly absorbs the individual's finances.
