The client wanted several versions of the character. I went through 3 different variations of each version based on feedback starting with initial sketches and ending in revised and fin-tuned graphics.

UC Santa Cruz Mural

The Graduate Studies administration selected my design for a mural for the new Grad Student Commons on campus. I worked with representatives from numerous departments to create a mural that encompassed all 60 graduate majors. I completed this mural while finishing my own thesis and teaching credential in the Master's in Education program.
