Mrs. Green Partners with The Art Institute of Tucson

The Image Manipulation class of Eleonor Leon, Instructor at The Art Institute of Tucson, and Mrs. Green collaborated to create a T-shirt design for Mrs. Green Goes Mainstream promotional giveaways. The project was submitted as a class assignment, with one final design to be selected by Mrs. Green and a team of professionals. Students were asked to conceptualize a "living green" theme. When the assignment was completed, Mrs. Green, along with Markus Beaumonte, Marketing Director, Chapman Automotive Tucson, and Travis Carson, Market Advantage Technologies, Inc.,‎ were invited to the classroom for a presentation of the students' work. "I was absolutely blown away by the quality of the presentations and sensitivity displayed by the students in depicting 'green' awareness," said Mrs. Green. With so many amazing designs it was difficult to choose, but Lauren Lynn's submission caught the team's eye and was the final piece selected for reproduction.

A sincere "thank you" to all who participated! (All rights reserved. Artwork may not be reproduced without permission from the artist.)

"I am from the wonderful little town of Morenci, Arizona. I am a painter and am working on a Graphic Design degree with the Art Institute of Tucson. Ulitmately, I want to work for the military as a designer. I have such a need to create. Most of my inspiration comes from that and a desire to overcome the difficult task of expressing yourself through art."

"I mainly wanted to create a simple yet stylish logo like Quicksilver or Hurley so kids would want to wear the shirt and show it off. I was inspired by top brands such as: DC, Quicksilver, Hurley because their designs are so simple and they are extremely popular."
