My final project for Concepts is on dandelions with an even deeper concept of micro vs. macro. Here are some images I found online that I thought were great interpretations of a dandelion, and of course photos of the flower itself. :) I have come to realize how underrated this little lady is. 1.

I especially love the Dali poster. So fun. :) The dandellion is actually one of the most prominent flowers reinterpreted in lighting design I find.

Why did you pick it? was it because of its sweetness? It's one of my fav flowers because its so unassuming and always lined with childhood. :)

Hiya!

I've been trying to find this photo I took of a poster for the airline Iberia, where there was a girl (illustration) blowing a dandellion and the bits were actually airplanes - it was a fantastic use of it! And I also have a big pic of a dandelion that I took hanging on my wall, I could email it to you if you want....

A gorgeous collection, dandelions are unstated for their beauty.

Hey Eugenia! My reason for picking the dandelion is totally because it is so unassuming, a flower that I just wanted to give a shout out to, and one that seems frequently overlooked, so I wanted to see how far I could go with getting inspired by it. :)

Yuri, I would LOVE to use that picture, my final project for it is due this Thursday and that would be great to have in my mood board - I will contact you! :)

Thank you babelfish!

Stella! you are back lady - bike ride!? :)
