Description |
I've heard that every bad flag has a good flag hidden in it, so I tried to take elements of the original flag. I chose three colors that seemed to be the most significant to the flag (blue, white and yellow). I like the yellow circle, so I made it thicker so it's more visible. I chose the sego lily to be the main symbol. It is native to Utah, and I think it makes a good symbol for Utah: a flower blossoming in the desert. On either side are stylized mountains capped with famous Utah snow. |
