What I learnt from Irish folk singing sessions

The Financial Times approached me to create an illustration to accompany a written piece by Patrick Freyne, entitled ‘What I learnt from Irish folk singing sessions’. The illustration features a scene in an Irish bar with a variety of characters singing and partaking in the session. Some of the characters are referenced in the written piece. As it was featured in an international newspaper, a subtle nod to Ireland in the illustration was fitting, and was achieved with the colour palette.
