Work in Progress: Paleta (Ice pop) Flavor labels

For my sculpture class I'm making Paletas (ice pops). This is a flavor sticker.
That symbol at the top right is the Aztec glyph for house. There will be a different glyph for different flavors.

Other flavors include:
* The American Dream
* Alien- Extranjero
* Equality
* Nativo
* ... And much more

Hello world!

First off, I can not thank you enough for visiting my humble little blog/portfolio on the net. 

Welcome all, I am creating this blog mainly for documenting and sharing the work I make here at art school.   As of now, I am in the second half of my sophomore year in college majoring in Intermedia, a double major of sort; my two focuses being Animation and Sculpture. During the course of this and future semesters, I will progressively add content here; which will consist of my school projects, and other personal pursuits. 

Among the content posted here, I will share at least one new drawing every week.

Things are a little slow right now, but give me some time for my semester to progress.

...And once again, thank you for visiting!
