This was the result of a pro bono competition between me (self-taught) and someone who has a Master's Degree in Graphic Design. The end result was that I worked harder, listened to the client better, and executed better that the person who held the Master's Degree. I have the deepest respect for her and her Master's Degree (we are still friends), but I didn't have time to get that highly esteemed credential. The bows are handd-drawn and hand-assembled. I'm really proud of this project as a pretty masculine guy competeing against a woman.
Here is another version that was rejected by the client. I agreed.
