The T-Shirt Has a Voice: A USF Upward Bound Project

This week was kinda hard for me. thinking of symbolism for my drawings were hard. Today, though, it came to me. I am sticking with he idea of phases of life but in a different way. Throughout the week i have been talking more with a girl i like, and i remembered that her favorite mythological creature is the Phoenix. I took the idea of how the phoenix dies and then is reborn from its own ashes. To me this has a greater symbolism than my puny acorn to an oak tree. This design can symbolize that even after the times in our life which we suffer we can still grow anew with more experience. Another way it can be interpreted is that life still goes on, when someone dies, someone else is born.
