Sometimes I left Messages in the Street
                One time I saw one of these flyers on a utility pole saying something like “you look beautiful today!”, “you did great today!”, I was surprised by how happy I was seeing it and teared a piece and took it home. Inspired by that, I love the idea of have something for the viewers to take home, potentially something that can bring joy, color or positivity to their home. I came across some canvas in a random store and I think painting would be a good idea for home decoration and it is louder than just paper flyer with positive messages. I got 9 canvas and thinking about assembling them into a bigger canvas, each can be taken by viewers. So I drew this in illustrator and divided it into 9 squares and planning to put paint it on the canvas.


               Every canvas has an Adobe Aero QR code attached on its back. It can be scanned and viewed in the Adobe Aero mobile APP.
