Dandelion Dream

Dandelion Dream grew out of one of its parts. It was the idea of its top piece, like the flames in Dawn but repeated in a circle. Picturing a half globe done like this made me think of the head of a dandelion and the idea developed from there. I paid a lot of attention to shapes and lines, including negative space in this design. I wanted to capture the sense or suggestion of a dandelion while keeping it abstract enough that you can’t be sure what it is.
