SXM Around the Island Race Poster


This is my poster for St. Maarten's Around the Island Relay Race.
In this picture I have an outline of St. Maarten running with the route of the race drawn on it. Its colors also represent the colors of the St. Maarten Flag.
I put the important information at the top (organizers and name of the event and its date), and I put the less important information(rules and regulations) at the bottom.
The background is a picture of a beautiful beach, like those on St. Maarten.

Google: The Hunger Games Edition









This is my Google Doodle. It is based off of the Hunger Games franchise. I used Katniss shooting her arrow as the "G" in Google. The two "o"s and the "g" take after the book's cover pages. The red "o" takes from the second book "Catching Fire", the yellow "o" takes from the first book, and the "g" takes from the third book "The Mockingjay". I used an arrow for the "l" and a trackerjacker nest for the "e".
First I drew Katniss, the birds, the arrow and the nest on a paper. Then, I traced the outlines with a fine sharpie marker in order to efficiently and conveniently color them in on MS Paint. After that I put everything in on Photoshop using the quick selection, the magic eraser, and the marquee tool. At first I had a real forest background but the colors and styles did not match, so instead I put a a cartoon forest background and it blended together well.
