Nouar Creates Anthropomorphic Edible Characters

Los Angeles-based artist, Nouar, is an artist who transforms food into beings.

The illustrator makes images of anthropomorphic edible characters, and has had her work used by Nickelodeon. Nouar's limited-edition prints are also available on Etsy and incorporate an element of humor and a distinct style.

Implications - Nouar's characters are expressive with smiles and bright eyes. Regardless of their fortune, whether it be half-eaten or just plain happy, the illustrations evoke a smile in viewers. Nouar displays a consistent retro aesthetic throughout her pieces and the continuity of the series is perfect. With a dulled color palette, the characters have a vintage aesthetic.
