Staying grounded. Falling anyway.

Large-scale flat graphic design on a solid black ground. An elongated classic felt pennant silhouette, wide at left and tapering to a sharp point at right, dominates the composition nearly edge to edge. The pennant body is filled with bold alternating horizontal stripes of pure white and blood-red, evenly spaced and high-contrast. At the visual center of the pennant, a bold heraldic shield rendered in blood-red with a clean white outline and simple internal chevron detailing serves as the hard focal anchor. The pennant border is a crisp white edge against the black ground. The composition reads as confrontational and stripped of sentimentality — sports heritage with the warmth removed. Flat vector fills throughout, zero gradients, hard clean edges.

Vintage botanical line drawing of a crimson rose in theatrical collapse. Petals spiral and curve dramatically, some falling, the main bloom arched backward as if fainting. The stem is bent in an exaggerated swoon. Central composition features ornate, detailed linework with soft shading. One petal or leaf curves upward in a pearl-clutching gesture. Deep crimson red with pale cream accents and subtle gold highlights. Intricate vintage botanical etching style. Solid black background for contrast.
