For my final design assignment for the week I decided to do the two star assignment that has you create an icon to describe yourself. As the picture they had Mickey Mouse’s ears, which made me a little sad because I wanted to do Minnie with a tiara (I just love her). So I decided to take a new approach and look at the things that really mean something to me. First of all my family is everything. I love them more than they will ever know and I’m so glad that they will always have my back. So, I wanted to put two things in my icon to represent them, a heart and a four leaf clover (we always have the luck of the Irish, plus I am superstitious like crazy). So I decided, why not make the four leaf clover be my base and put something in each leaf? Brilliant, I know.

So that’s exactly what I did. I opened up paint and set a drew of a four-leaf clover to be my background. I then drew in a heart (for family and love), Mickey Mouse (for believing in my dreams), an apple (because my passion is teaching and that is what I want to be when I grow up, trust me it is not because I like apples (unless they are covered in sugar)), and finally math symbols (since math is the first thing I was ever truly passionate about). I believe that these things all represent who I am as a person and who I want to be as well, so it’s the perfect icon for me! I was proud because I drew all of this freely, which is impressive considering my lack of artistic abilities. Here was my final result:
