In one of my classes the teacher arranged to have a contest. We were all to create a poster that could be used for the American Heart Association Run Walk that was going to be held in Salt Lake City. I went through a few rough drafts and a few different ideas and the final concept that I came up with was the mosaic idea. I thought about when my Grandpa went through heart problems and the thing that got all of us through was the group of people. That was comprised of our family, friends, doctors, nurses, all hospital staff, etc. Without that group effort it would have been a lot harder to cope with. This inspired my thoughts for the design. The mosaic takes a bunch of different pieces of paper and combines them to make something beautiful. Much like in my grandpa's case all the different people made the coping possible. I won the contest. After all the work that I did, it felt wonderful. They used the design for the t-shirt and the poster was auctioned at a benefit.
