Varsity days

A friend of mine, Alisha suggested that I put these up :) Did this back in the day, (well it seems like an eternity ago!) when I was in varsity. These postcards were part of an illustration assignment - the aim was to draw prospective students to our university. It's amazing how much I miss college, now that I think about it - lazing in the sun and doodling...life was so simple back then ♥
