Why Odile Feraille wanted to design a Face This T-shirt
Odile Ferraille: I really liked the concept of the project. The idea of the collaboration with kids seemed like a cool and fun work to do! And the cause of course and to be able to help in some way.
Odile Feraille about the Indonesian kids' drawings
Odile Ferraille: I instantly loved them! I loved how it portrayed the kids’ environment. And stylistically, I’ve always loved the simple and naive way that children draw. I like it when the shapes get a little bit off or awkward. I think that’s what gives a drawing its charm, and that’s something I’m looking for in my own illustrations.
How Odile Feraille designed his Face This T-shirt
Odile Ferraille: I was inspired by the birds, present in multiple drawings! The idea was to make the kids’ birds interact with one of my own characters. I was also inspired by the shape of the trees in one of the drawings. I thought it looked very cool and instantly knew I wanted to integrate it into my drawing.
