Renovations!!!

I rethought my color scheme and here are the results: I am working with a water theme, hence the blues. And the yellow has a lot of meaning to me. I think it has an androgynous property when it comes to babies, I feel that it is nurturing; the muteness of the pale yellow has a sense of serenity, but in essence, since it is YELLOW, it still has a sense of adventure. I like yellow.

these are my revised silhouettes. I am not content with any of them, but I think it has to do more with the content than with the execution....well, I can't change my face/head...

Here are the icons I have been working on. I think I have to work a tad bit more on unifying the style. But this is a start.

And here are some of the class projects i had not previously posted : chico mi tipo & my self portrait is no where to be found at the moment. But its yellow, and it has hexagons.

On the topic of connection, I am having a hard time honing in on a concept. My mind-mapping experience ended up in "sex" and "stalking," so I rendered it unsuccessful. Somewhere in the middle, I came up with the concepts of spiderwebs and the universe. I think there is a possibility to illustrate how the universe is connected using messy spiderwebs--six degrees of separation right?

Possible color palettes

Contemplating these colors for the self-portrait. I think they are too pastel-y...meh.
