Inside out


On this project we were supposed to show the interior and exterior of an object. I used a picture of myself and used pipes as my main tools inside the body. I used the Glowing Edges filter to make it seem like an x-ray.

Midterm


On this project we were supposed to create an image with many different 1x1" squares, manipulating each with filters and adjustments and such. I decided to make a scene of a soccer ball on grass with a sun. I made all of the squares grey to make it all the same color scheme.

Photofunia.com

On this project we had to use a photo-editing site yo create an image from one of our images. I went onto Photofunia.com and took a photo of me on a 100 dollar bill.

ArtNews

This is my second painting for the ArtNews project. This painting, Manierre Dawson, inspires me because i realized that without painting a realistic human figure, you can tell the painting is portraying a human, only using random shapes and only a few tints and shades of one color.

ArtNews

On this project, we were supposed to choose a photo from the magazine ArtNews that inspired us. This photo, Beauvais Cathedral by Colin Campbell Cooper, inspired me because when you look closely you see that there are colors in certain places of the painting that don't seem like they belong but still make the painting look realistic.

Filtered self portrait

On this project we used filters to edit a self portrait 9 times. I like soccer so i made my border a national teams soccer ball.

Cartoon Strip

On this project we were supposed to make a comic strip. I was thinking about balloons that day so of course i made a cartoon strip about balloons. My character gets a balloon at the zoo and then travels around the world chasing after it, to end up catching it finally back at home.

Holiday card

On this project we went onto card websites and had to create our own cards and since it was near Christmas, i made a Christmas card. When i think of Christmas cards i think of presents, Christmas trees, and a family photo. So, i combined all of those into one Christmas card.

Pixlr.com

On this project we were supposed to go to a free graphic design website and play with the tools and try to make something out of it. I went on to pixlr.com and used a fancy pen tool to create this face.
