    uniE621 SUNSHINE DJEMBE
    Entry for a design Competition on bringyourownlaptop. My best holiday was in Cape Town, where many people play Djembe drums. It's the ideal holiday place, with breathtaking nature. I created this character called SUNSHINE DJEMBI. He is the guy who plays "his own drum" and lives his dream. Sometimes, a green mamba comes alone, but he will just hit it while playing, and nothing will break his rhythm. (Just a little story about life) I have drawn everything in Illustrator, a program that I am very passionate about.
