Save the Rainforest





















I am very pleased at how my recycled chandeliers came out. I wasn't expecting the shadows to be so prominent on the walls. Im upset I wasn't able to project an image of the rainforest on the walls but since it wouldn't have covered the entire room, it wouldn't have looked as good as it did in my head. With the rainforest the shadows wouldn't be visible, so it worked out for the better.

Waking Up Early

I'm seriously considering doing this: http://the99percent.com/tips/6954/the-1-step-plan-for-super-productivity

When I interview creatives, I often ask them what advice they would give to the next generation, the up-and-comers. Curiously, there’s one incredibly important habit that nearly all of them possess that is almost never mentioned. So what is the secret ingredient in their productivity regime? It’s simple: They get up early.


I feel like i have a lot more time when I get up early and try to work.

3D Project Inspiration


For my 3D Propaganda project, I am creating a series of paper dolls to promote eating disorder awareness. This image is my an artist named Lisa Perrin, who creates a lot of paper dolls and recently commissioned these for a museum gift shop.

mixed media project


This is an image of my final mixed media project. For this project, I was inspired by vintage beach photos. I began with a bunch of found imagery and compiled a montage in photoshop. After printing this on canvas paper, I did some illustration over top to enhance the collage idea further. I kept the illustrations in the same style and muted colors as the photos felt. I am happy with the final product. However, I think this piece could have benefited by being larger in size.
