Some new kids' stuff

Here's two pieces I did also using my standard combo of Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. The top four images are a series of name tags for kids' school desks. If marketed, they would come in a variety pack, including an assortment of ladybugs, bumblebees, butterflies, and grasshoppers. The bottom image is a tribute to my friend Zack's dog, who passed over the summer. The illustration is of the two of them... meeting again. :) It was much more complicated to create than the name tags, but I also used many more tools in Adobe Photoshop. I used flat shapes, with gradients on top, and painted-sections and textures on top of that! Talk about some layers! :P
