Bubble of Bliss (and Jellyfish): A Junior Illustration Project by Carly Watson (2021)

One of my best friends, Olivia is moving off to college this year. I really wanted to give her something meaningful that could not only be cute, but also useful and show her how much I love our friendship. When I heard that night lights were an option for this project, I knew that is what I wanted to make for her! I went for a whimsical jellyfish look, and included her name as a personal touch. This was extra special because she is the one that taught me how to do calligraphy and a lot of other art projects. I found it hard to make my jellyfish even, and they did not look quite right for a long time. Eventually, I decided to test out some different brushes, and ended up experimenting with making my own brush in Illustrator. Even though it required a lot of trial and error, I was able to have something I was happy with in the end. I learned how important it is to give yourself the time and space to be creative and if you do that, you will be able to make something that you love! Related website
