GRILL & GLORY
Barbecuing and grilling are deeply rooted in American culture. This outdoor cooking tradition is a relaxed and simple way to prepare food, using fire and smoke to enhance flavor. Today, grilling reaches its peak on the 4th of July, a holiday that has become synonymous with cookouts, warm weather, and leisurely gatherings. Many Whole Foods Market customers celebrate by enjoying time outdoors with family and friends, grilling favorites like burgers, ribs, and steaks, complemented by seasonal salads, sides, and desserts. The event Grill & Glory taps into this rich Americana food tradition, evoking the flavors, nostalgia, and spirit of classic backyard barbecues.
This was a conceptual project and is not associated with Whole Foods Market.
DISCOVERY
I was thrilled to contribute to the concepting for Whole Foods Market’s June 2025 grilling event, collaborating with the exceptionally talented Senior Copywriter, Carly Stember. This project allowed me to collaborate on the creative vision and bring Carly’s concept of an Americana-themed monster truck to life through illustration.
