We had a freelance project! I got to design myself a mousepad, something I needed. I went with a forest clearing, all in shades of green and brown. these colors are cooler and helped set the nature tone. I added fireflies and a sun beam coming from the upper left corner to lead the eye down to the character sitting in the clearing. he is relaxed, and holding a heart. this imagery reminds me to center myself and keep an open heart.
