Bumbershoot

Bumbershoot was supposed to be a VectorXVexel Philippines Alphabet Collaboration but I skipped a specific rule which is about the background so I'll be making another :) Anyway, participating members have to choose a letter from the English Alphabet, pick a word from it then shape it to the letter chosen.

I've chosen the letter 'B' and found a very rare word from it. It's Bumbershoot - a British slang for umbrella, taken from 'umb' of umbrella and '-chute' as in a parachute. There are three illustrations below to which the third is my submission to the collaboration.

 

Bumbershoot

I lacked interest to common words so finding Bumbershoot had me jumping for joy! Besides, being a logophile myself won't be much of a surprise to you XD

The first image above is an introductory; next is a set of umbrellas forming the letter 'B'; the last image is a person standing at the end of a road that has a reflection of her with the Bumbershoot to form the letter 'B'.

Even though this is a rainy theme, there's nothing sad to these illustrations because whenever I think of Bumbershoots, they're frequently used during rainy days rather than on sunny. It's happy rain :]
