Experimental Barbeque Tool Set

Its the year 2022 and I’ve been tasked with creating a cohesive set of themed, utilitarian commodities upon drawing the blanket term “snakes” out of a hat.

Originally opting for a traditional set of three Japanese Samurai swords - the katana, wakizashi, and tanto - I ultimately ended up combining the imagery of nature’s nope ropes with Neolithic inspiration to create what you see here.

In addition to the “glamor” shots are six of the original pages of my graduation portfolio back-to-back with my original submission for grade. These outline the basics of the making/developing process.
