This assignment is called ReImagined Road Signs by Cheryl Colan. The purpose is to find road signs and create an image representing the possible backgrounds of what is depicted. After searching for street signs, I came across a photo of a cow, obviously warning drivers of cows walking on the road. However what if you saw this sign on the side of the road:

To make this sign I primarily used paint to create the UFO, sign frame, and crop the cow image. Pretty easy, but a fun assignment to great creative.
