3d type 1st critique Mikula

I started my 3d type project about a month ago to allow time for my flowers to grow and hopefully bloom. For my project I built a rectangular wooden box and filled it with soil. Then I stuck popsicle sticks in and spelled out the word grow. I had no emotional connection or idea how this project applied to me at first, the idea of plants in type just popped into my head and I ran with it. If I had to make an artist statement about this project in relation to myself as an artist I would say that my career path could very easily be compared to  seeds growing into flowers (and yea this may be a little cheesy and cliche, but just go with it). I decided I wanted to be a graphic designer my sophomore year of college and this being only my junior year, I'm still a young designer and have a lot of growing to do. But just as there are guidlelines (the popsicle sticks) for the flowers to grow along, I have the support and help of my school, my family, my friends, and many other resources helping me grow as a designer (and it can be bigger than just as a designer, just myself in general). So that is the meaning I've found within this project and I'm loving the progress so far!
