Overview
I was thrilled to illustrate Waskasoo, the mascot for the 2019 Canada Winter Games.
Problem
The Games needed illustrations to support the mascot program—suit, stuffies, and swag—while staying true to a character already loved by the community.
My Solution
I worked with Sabrina at Quarter Section Creative to expand on Lacombe resident Mackenzie Van Damme’s original design. I created illustrations that guided the development of the mascot suit, merchandise, and other branded materials.
Result
Waskasoo came to life as a community character representing the heart of the Games. I’m proud to have played a part in bringing this mascot into the hands of athletes and fans.
Working alongside Sabrina at Quarter Section Creative, we expanded on Lacombe resident Mackenzie Van Damme’s original character design. We created detailed illustrations that guided the development of the mascot suit, swag, and other branded materials.
