so really... why not???

it was a pretty big week at icon. we had michael from the printers coming and going, files and websites being checked and rechecked for spelling, translations, all that good stuff. and in the midst of it all there was glory... why not affairs and its mother why not enterprises are launched and live!

this crazy ginger angel you see above was one of my designs for a web banner for the philanthropy page of why not enterprises. the angel comes from a photograph by esther haase that i believe is owned by the why not founder/prez. the banner was originally located on a different site (the why not affairs one) and so i had also created the following two to go along with that theme.

the theme of the lilies came because the owner of why not [gabriella bär-richner] donates most of her profits to different mental health organizations here in switzy. the lily stands for hope and the purple ribbon is often used to symbolize mental health, as well as the two colors for the chakras located in the head are both varieties of purple! i had an awesome time researching hope for some of gabi's hope projects. there are just so many crazy symbols and meanings its fantastic!
