Baroque Flower  Baroque Flower is a merge between a sunflower and baroque spoons. In place of the sunflower petals I drew a variety of baroque spoons - using the bowl of the spoons for petals and the intricate designs of the neck to create the center. When originally deciding what to do I came up with the idea of using the bowls of the spoons as flower petals after I noticed that a lot of the spoons already had shapes that resembled petals and leaves. I appreciated that even though all of the spoons were baroque style each spoon still had it's own individuality to it and I wanted that to still be noticeable within the drawing.  Reference Images Sources  https://images.replacements.com/images/images2/flatware/W/P0000110566S0383T2.jpg https://images.replacements.com/images/images2/flatware/W/P0000110566S0399T2.jpg https://cdn0.rubylane.com/shops/694606/f98.1L.jpg https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/41B58VGC4HL.jpg ...

My name is Ivette, and if you're wondering how that is supposed to be pronounced the answer is nobody knows. I'm Puerto Rican, the youngest of five and the only one out of my siblings not born on the island. I was born and raised in Rhode Island, but my family moved to Florida a few years back. I'm currently a junior and majoring in animation, which is something I've always been really passionate about. I was a terrible person to watch cartoons with as a child as a result of this though.
