Poster Illustration and Promotional Sticker Design- Elakha Sea Otter Alliance
Click images for full screen
This project is a collaboration with the Elakha Sea Otter Alliance and includes a poster illustration and a promotional sticker and pin set design. The items will be sold to raise funds for the reintroduction of sea otters in their natural habitat of the Oregon coast, where they have been locally extinct due to overhunting.
"Working with Marina Alcoser was an absolute pleasure! She created a beautiful sea otter sticker and pin combo, along with a stunning sea otter/mermaid art print for the Elakha Alliance to help us fundraise to return sea otters to Oregon. Her creativity and attention to detail truly brought our vision to life. Marina was wonderful to work with—responsive, easy to communicate with, and always open to feedback. We couldn’t be happier with the final products and highly recommend her to anyone looking for unique and captivating art."

These character portrait illustrations were created as as promotional art for the 2024 preorder campaign of Madsi the True (Simon and Schuster/ Atheneum Books for Young Readers) by S.J Taylor. Readers who preordered received three exclusive character cards.
"Marina has been a dream to work with. She's incredibly thorough, taking time to get to know the characters through in-depth descriptions so she can portray not just their physical appearance, but also their personality through illustration. Throughout the process, she checks in frequently to solicit feedback and suggestions for change. Her attention to detail further breathes life into the artwork, so the end result is a delightful blend of fun illustration with poignant emotion. Highly recommend her!"

This illustration was created as a soap label for Larkspur Lane's exclusive line of baby soaps made to support children in need. The soap is handmade in small batches and the packaging and ingredients are ethically and organically sourced. The outer packaging also features a linework illustration of the bathtub bear. A news interview about the company, its soaps, and the illustration process is set for later 2023!
Marina is an exceptionally talented illustrator who created the most adorable artwork for my baby soap label at Larkspur Lane. Her attention to detail and artistic flair brought my vision to life in the most enchanting way. The illustration is beautifully crafted, capturing the essence of innocence and purity that I wanted to convey. Marina's professionalism and dedication to her craft were evident throughout the entire process, making collaboration a breeze. I am thrilled with the final result and confident that her artwork will captivate my customers. I highly recommend Marina for any illustration project, and I look forward to working with her again in the future. Thank you, Marina, for your incredible talent and making my baby soap label truly special!

Poster and Promotional Art Illustration- Wintry Market
Click images for full screen
This poster and promotional artwork was commissioned by Wintry Market, voted Idaho's best holiday market by Food and Wine Magazine. Each year a regional artist is chosen to illustrate the poster to advertise the event across the Northwest. I was very excited to work with them on this project and also to become a vendor this season!
Marina is a fantastic artist who has been selected as a vendor in both Wintry Market, our exclusive juried handmade for the holidays signature event, and Summery Market, our handmade + vintage for the sunny days sister event. Her work is fun and whimsical and after having her in our shows we knew she'd be a perfect fit to design our event poster for Wintry Market 2022. We invite a different artist each show to design unique marketing materials, and Marina went above and beyond for us, creating not just one but several fantastical scenes for our use in our posters, website, social media, postcards, vendor and volunteer buttons. She was prompt, responsive, professional, creative and so wonderful to work with!
