Katie Rodgers is a fashion illustrator who has created a series of unique Q-tips drawings that focus specifically on the stunning dresses that stood out on the red carpet at the Academy Awards. From Lady Gaga's bold red rubber-like gloves to Chrissy Teigen's take on old Hollywood glamor, the gorgeous gowns ranged quite a bit this year.
The Q-tips drawings capture this diversity in a classic way using unorthodox artist tools. What makes this series particularly interesting is the fact it is a subtle campaign for the Q-tips brand. Through these Q-tips drawings, people are exposed to a different use for the cotton ball sticks while the brand targets a younger demographic in general.
