Beach day


Here is a personal card I made for a friend and fellow Cleveland surfer's birthday. As of lately, I have been looking at a lot of contemporary folk art ,which seems to have inspired this little piece. I wanted to play around with flattening the perspective and icons into a pattern-like composition of verticals and horizontals. I would like to try this technique again, but venture out of my comfort zone with looser, more irregular shapes.
