Week 3 - Personal T-Shirt Design

 Well amid some delays on this end, I finally got my assignment for Week 3 at what I view as a decent stopping point. 

Since this week's assignment focused on something "I" would wear, that made it sort of a fun and unique challenge.  I had a few initial ideas which I narrowed down to a final four set of ideas (seen on the left), but I kept coming back to the hawk idea since it felt like it made for a better composition.

Due to time constraints, I opted not to go the Illustrator/vector route, but I had a lot of fun applying color in a sort of Kymba-y, color-happy way. :)  I went with a lighter sort of sea-foam background than I originally intended.  I'd thought at first about making it sort of a combination between the moon and the sun and to pull in both daytime and nighttime in a composition, but it just started looking way too complex and convoluted.
 Here is my larger redrawing of the design I wanted to go with followed by my "final" pass of what I was considering for the colors of it.  I'd also consider muting the hawk to be more "blue," but I'm decently pleased with how it turned out. :)
