final scetch ideas

For my final project I have chosen to base my series of pieces on the Claddagh. The claddagh is a very old Irish symbol that represents 3 core values of successful relationships. Those values are: Friendship(symbolized by two hands), Love(the heart), and Loyalty(the crown). The symbol made its way across the globe via migrating Irish people from the Potato Famine. The claddagh is most commonly seen in jewelry.

---------------------------------
This is what i came up with to represent friendship, a little boy and his dog on the beach
---------------------------
I decided to use the old fasion tree carving to represent love
--------------------------
For loyalty, i chose the most loyal thing possible(in my eyes) the unknown soldier monument. You cant get much more loyal than someone sacraficing their life for their country, without anyone knowing who you were.

Overall, I like the concept. As long as you can give it a personal/unique message and tie in all your pieces you should have a successful final project.
