More practice in Illustrator

Have I told ya'll how much I love this program? Illustrator is the first program I learned on the computer (and on my own to add to the fact ^_~) and I still love it so much. I am interested in making my own type ever since my internship at Kin Valley and looking to get more serious with it. Here is some practice work I did to accompany another piece I did last year. If I could, I would put this on a shirt for my son (if I had one I might add!) Enjoy!
