" (1) I took this photo when I was studying abroad and visiting Switzerland. It was the most beautiful and peaceful place I had ever seen. (2) I saw this near the end of the summer when COVID got really bad in Colorado. I thought it was a sign that everything was going to be alright (cheesy!), so I took a photo! (3) I took this photo back in March when we were all in quarantine. My parents and I would go on a walk a lot because that's all we could really do during that time. This bag of homemade masks was posted to a fence in our neighborhood, so I took a picture! (4) On Christmas, I received a photo of Pearl Street that looked similar to this design. I loved how it looked, so I tried to recreate it, but with a photo I took of the Flatirons a couple years ago. It was really fun learning new techniques of design that I didn't know I could previously do.
