What you see here is the culmination of all my hard work towards my degree - the graphic design showcase Of The Essence. In my final semester of college, my fellow Graphic & Interactive Design major seniors and I put together this event, each hoping to show off a bit of our own style as a designer. We each made designs for shirts, cards, and skateboards - each printed piece was ours from start to finish. We each created our designs, found places to print, and made it happen!  I chose to mix design and illustration, and focus on pretty but meaningful works. And to go with my handdrawn illustrations I also crocheted matching flowers, printed a few wall prints, and had stickers made. All of our items were up for sale at this event, which was very exciting!
