I included the image she plans to use as her avatar as well as another picture of her. For the background, I used photographs of bokeh that I've taken, music note shapes overlayed, and rectangular bokeh that I created with a custom brush I made.")

:format(webp)/99designs-contests-attachments/65/65266/attachment_65266137 "The client was looking for a poster that was a play off of the Hunger Games without being an exact copy. I used pictures of fire that I took for the background. For the symbol, I used the circle shape tool and traced the horse head logo in Illustrator. I then added some styles to it and more flames. I took the images of the horses that the client provided and removed the background. Lastly, I added in the text to complete the image.")

For the text, I duplicated it and applied a motion blur effect.")

Then I added the flower overlay and silhouette. For the red circle, I added some styles to make it pop out a little bit more. I wanted the final image to fit in with the logo and have a carefree feel to it.")

I also used a circle for the outer arch and removed the bottom part. For the silhouettes, I traced photographs of my animals that I took with the pen tool and altered them until they looked the way I wanted.")
