"In spite of a sluggish economy, U.S. wine consumption registered its 14th consecutive annual gain in 2007, as Americans who drank more wine than Italians for the first time ever and now trail only the French in total wine consumed."-Wine Spectator

Illustration Project #1 Tattoo

For this project I used part of the Jamaican National Seal and combined it with things I associate with Jamaica. The Hummingbird and Hibiscus, while being very recognizable flora and fauna from Jamaica, have a personal importance. All the storms recently have gotten rid of many of my favorite trees and plants on my grandfathers land, but I have fond memories of lots of flowers where the birds would come and drink.
