No Shoulders Family

This design collection was inspired by my Southern father who always referenced snakes as "Mr. No Shoulders". Making kid-friendly illustrations, I wanted to visually expand the phrase into a cute family with pun-filled phrases and bright colors. These were created from sketches to vector illustrations in the of a week. There are variations not shown above.

Cute snake with a patterned top hat. "Mister NO Shoulders"

Cute snake with a bow and heart necklace. "Sis NO Shoulders"

Cute snake with a t-shirt and a backwards hat. "Jr. No Shoulders".

Cute snake with hoop earrings and a pearl necklace. "Miss NO Shoulders".

"Mr. NO Shoulders" was the initial concept and representation led to expanding it further (ie., Sis (Sister), Jr. (Junior), Miss (Mommy or non-mommy), Enby (Nonbinary). Below are the versions of these with snake puns and fun phrase. All typography and lettering was custom created in Adobe Illustrator.
