The Brave Ram, wearing a traditional romanian pattern on the horns.
Solution
Which animal(s) did you choose as a visual and why?
I choose for my design the ram, because it's a wide-spread animal in my country, but also a very respected one. It simbolises braveness , masculinity and competitiveness.
What culture or region does the animal stand for?
The ram is very spread on hill and mountain areas of my country.
What story does your design tell?
The ram has a very strong character, establishing a dominance hierarchy through fighting, threats and competitiveness and simbolises braveness, energy and masculinity. The geometrical pattern on the horns represents a traditional romanian pattern.
What style did you choose for your design and why?
The style I used for my design is traditional ink drawing.
