ABOUT
I was commissioned to create the cover artwork for The Natural Menopause Method Cookbook, a practical guide by nutritionist Karen Newby featuring 60 nourishing recipes arranged by symptom. The book supports women navigating menopause through simple, natural foods designed to address symptoms like brain fog, fatigue and hot flushes.
Working closely with the publisher and author, we developed a color palette that felt warm and approachable, one that would reflect the book’s nurturing tone. The illustration centers on a vibrant, ingredient-filled bowl, with each element chosen to visually represent key areas of nutrition and whole-body support.
The artwork was created in Adobe Illustrator to provide a clean, scalable vector file for print and I also delivered a textured version built in Procreate to offer a more organic, tactile feel. It was a meaningful collaboration on a subject I care deeply about, highlighting the power of food through every stage of life.
