I'm working on a package art design for a friend's mamaki tea operation. He grows and dries it, but doesn't yet have a picture to stick on the package.

This is my first time doing something like this. Currently I'm sketching from a reference photo, and later I'll watercolor it.

If you're not familiar with mamaki, it's a plant native to Hawai'i that makes a fantastic, delicate tea: https://www.hawaiiforestfarms.com/mamaki
