Inspired by Marko Manev’s recent series of Marvel prints, I decided to create my own series of Minimalist Grimm-centric Character Posters. Using the most elemental traits of each of the seven main characters, I produced a set of graphic iconography that not only represents their physical being, but also what each character stands for as well: Strength, Compassion, Corruption, Addiction, Power, Faith and Evil.
