Cairn

An illustration of the Dale Head summit cairn in the English Lake District for Cairn Investment Group.

A cairn is a human-made pile of stones, often created as a landmark, memorial site, or for meditation purposes. They can symbolize personal journeys, milestones, balance, and stability. Cairn Investment Group shares these values, and asked me to illustrate the Dale Head summit cairn to hang in their Vancouver, WA office space.

Notes to self

Often in the middle/end of a project, I look at the big picture and write up a visual "to do list" of self-critiques.
