Birch Tree Typography Project

In the VERY early stages of creating a new piece for our Snow White inspired nursery. Ultimately it will be a type graphic featuring a quote from one of Snow White's songs. "Because you're the one who can fill the world with sunshine". I selected an existing cursive font and began transforming it and adding on the birch treatment elements throughout.
I hope to have some other surrounding illustrations to frame it all up. Much work ahead, but I thought I would share something early on to show the direction I'm taking and to seek any advice for those willing to share along the way.
