Morning Glory
$0.00
Morning Glory represents a few different ideas through its symbolic imagery. Morning Glory flowers illustrate life, death, and rebirth, blooming each morning only to die every evening. They are very resilient, enduring harsh conditions, yet also fleeting, only showing their beauty for a short time. One may compare the Morning Glory flower to love, and gift it as a symbol of an unbreakable bond between two people. In the Victorian Era, this flower was given as a gesture of love, however it was more so considered for love in vain. I designed this piece with the concepts of perpetuity and rebirth in mind.

Virgo Robot
In a parallel universe far outside the Milky Way Galaxy, people use zodiac robots to help care for the Earth! As an Earth sign, the Virgo robot’s primary purpose is to keep the planet clean, safe, and habitable for all of its beings. It works in conjunction with the other zodiac robots in this universe, including Aries, Pisces, and Aquarius. This micro pen drawing portrays the Virgo robot performing its daily duties, including drilling holes for planting trees, watering plants, and planting seeds. The sunflower arm attachment can produce any type of seed needed for the environment, and also emits sunlight to help sprout the seedlings!
