Description
This was just done for the "One Word" assignment in Fred Lynch's Illustration class. We were assigned to illustrate a single word that is commonly used (to at least the extent that the audience would *get* it) but presented a challenge in itself.I really enjoyed doing this and it wound up being a relatively quick piece to execute. Can you guess the word? give it a think...(I have to include...I'm particularly proud that mine was the only illustration the class agreed unanimously and correctly on without knowing the actual word). So...
The word's: Universal!
Get it? Get it?
...get it?

Perfect, it would take me more time (hours)thinking of the word to illustrate more so than illustrating it.
Someone needs to remind the (confused) aliens which planet Ipods came from!

HAHA! You'll do fine...welcome back! I can't wait to see what you come up with this year!
Yes, that was me.
Fred rocks! you'll be glad you've got him if you aren't already! It's a little challenging, sure, but it's a lot fun! SO, hopefully I'll see you in person soon! Good luck! (and if you need anyone to test the one-word assignment out on, let me know!)

HA, I win at this game- and fancy that, my "Awkward" piece was the only one that my class agreed on as well.
