Watercolor Textures · Backgrounds
Full-bleed JPG textures for use as section backgrounds, slide backdrops, and large-format print surfaces. Each color comes in two densities — heavy (1) and light (2).

Background usage rules
Slide backgrounds & web sections

Use full-bleed as presentation slide backgrounds or as CSS background-image on section containers. The -1 (heavy) variant suits white or gold text; the -2 (light) variant works best with dark text. Center-crop vertically. Do not tile.

Print

JPG format is suitable for print at standard screen resolution contexts. For large-format print, request source files.

Watercolor Textures · Spots & Brushstrokes
Transparent PNG elements for collage, overlay, and composition — organized by color. Spots are round or organic shapes; brushstrokes are gestural, directional marks.

Spots & brushstroke usage rules
Collage

Layer multiple elements at varying scales and opacities to build textured collage compositions. PNG transparency allows free stacking.

Photo framing

Place a Round or Blob spot behind a cutout photograph to create a soft color field. The feathered edge integrates naturally with cutout imagery.

Energy & motion

Use brushstrokes when a layout needs dynamism — diagonal placement, overlapping, or as a frame for photography and text.

Scale freely

All assets are high-resolution and can be scaled up or down without quality loss at typical print and screen sizes.

Color discipline

Stick to brand colors. Do not recolor or hue-shift — the specific pigment quality of each is intentional.

Scribbles
Hand-drawn line marks, loops, sweeps, and gestural shapes. Transparent PNG. Use to add energy, warmth, and a human touch to layouts — as overlays, dividers, or accent elements in collage.

Scribble usage rules
Overlays

Layer scribbles over photography, watercolor textures, or solid color fields to add a handmade, human quality.

Dividers

Sweeping line scribbles (Loop Wavy Tail, Long Sweep Spiral) work well as organic section dividers in editorial layouts.

Accents

Use the hearts sparingly as warmth signals — in testimonial sections, closing slides, or social posts about connection and values.

Color

All scribbles are black on transparent. On dark backgrounds, use CSS filter: invert(1) to render them in white.

Scale

Scale freely. Scribbles work at both large (full-bleed overlays) and small (inline accent) sizes.

Vintage Etched Illustration Set

A collected library of symbolic, etched, and watercolor illustrations — eyes, hands, hearts, doors, suns, roots, keys. They live alongside our photographic concepts as moodier, more allegorical alternatives.

Use them when a layout calls for warmth, mystery, or a literary register — book covers, opening slides, journal-style spreads, hero composition with a single anchor object.
