Earth week poster


Every year the main color is green. I try to do something different with the pattern or background. One year it was a map. The next year it was small leafy branches on the outside and oversized leaf shapes on the inside. This year, I chose to add in water drops on blue as the contrasting pattern because so many of our events have a water theme.

Since the raindrops were done in a very structured, geometric way, I edited the leaf pattern to also march in tidy rows. In this way, the two patterns "belong" together.

  3. Of course I like it! It is neat and tidy and a relief for my mind after I saw the domestic arms display-ha!

  4. But didn't you think it was clever? The arms I mean? It was a whole room with art based around the idea of weapons. I thought it was funny.
