Three in the Burbs

Got interested in representing the number 3 in different ways - the Art Directors Club of Metro DC has a segment on their blog: http://fullbleed.adcmw.org/ that polls for the "top three" of various topics. It got me thinking. started knocking ideas around... first one to come out of Painter 11 is "Three in the Burbs" - I had a blast incorporating a sloppy little sketch with a crisp letter form. I usually hate those mergers, but this one turned out fine. I tired to fit a swimming pool into each back yard, but found it cramped the flow in spots.
