Simply, I love not only the word tarn itself, but also tarns themselves.

For anyone unsure, a tarn is a mountain lake. Usually a great place to stop for a rest, food or a photo when out on a walk or hike in places like the Lake District.

Being a northerner quite near to the Lakes, it serves as the main inspiration for my love of the word, for walking and indeed just being outside up a mountain.

I didn't set out to create the design, I was merely doodling when after two lines I thought 'oh that looks a bit like two mountains together'. Then another single line later, it looked like a tarn was present. Throw in a couple of people, one of which may or may not be myself, in my head anyway, add the word tarn so I could remember what I had drawn and that was it pretty much done. No intention, just a happy accident really.
