How is your style reflected on your desk?

My desk is usually pretty cluttered, but I like to surround myself with things I love. I have a few clay animals from a friend’s very talented younger sister (Isabelle Bui, age 10), a dinosaur (because why not), some of my favorite sketches from Nicole, and lots of color.
