Precious Time






For our final project, we were asked to create 26 characters for a card game called "Old Maid" of which you blindly pick two cards at a time to try and match. Each of these characters are created from people, objects, events, and hobbies in my life.

Mix Tapes


Sad Sad City by Ghostland Observatory

Yoshimi Battles thePink Robots Part 1 by The Flaming Lips


E.S.P. by The Miles Davis Quintet


Cello Suite No. 1 in G by J.S Bach



For this project, we were asked to listen to four different songs multiple times and create a representation of each song. 

Simplification Through Symbolism


We cannot see our reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see. -Taoist Poverb




Our life is shaped by our mind; we become what we think. -Buddha



Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of balance, order, rhythm and harmony." -Thomas Merton




For this project, we were asked to draw a symbol for each quote we picked.  Once I had chosen my quotes, I began to ponder on what they could symbolize. For ins-tense, the Taoist Proverb has always reminded my of a koi fish which is why I drew one. Then, I decided to draw animals in representation of the quotes to keep a consistency within the pictures.

Cyrc


This poster is a poster to advertise the circus coming to town, the name being Cyrc. We were asked to become the character we had created and come up with a poster that represents the characters style.

For this assignment I was asked to draw a character completely opposite from. I chose to draw YOLO which is abbreviated from you only live once. YOLO is a crazy, superficial, self centered, chain-smoking, horror loving queen... That litters.
