A

This A started out as a Y.  I wanted the lines in this to look like they flowed into each other when they really don't.  For instance, there is a sharp triangular shape horizontally coming off the right side, and on the left there is a squiggly line.  I tried to make it look like these flowed into each other. I thought the dark blue went well with the black.  I wanted the color to look subtle, and I wanted it on one side only.

Two

Two is my second(hehe) favorite number.   I love how streamlined it is.  The curves are interesting to play around with.  I wanted to make the long curve at the top look like it was melting, so I added in a "droplet". I also wanted to play around with negative space, so I cut out lines on the figure to make it look more spacious.

Seven

Seven is probably my favorite number.  I love its sharp, quick shape that it has.  I tried making it look even sharper than it is.  I also tried to make it more blade-like by serrating it and making it thinner.
