2D Design Assignments

Card stock paper on illustration board. Non-objective asymmetrical piece.

Another card stock on illustration board, this time symmetrical following the same shape design as the first. These were taken on my green fluffy rug and I was too lazy to photoshop it out. :P

Stipple design on illustration board. We did a bunch of studies of a fruit or vegetable (I chose a sweet dumpling squash). Then we took some of the thumbnails and made a composition on a large piece of illustration board. We each had to choose a symbol that we would use with the stippling to make different textures. I used an "@" sign, organic shading, and words to make my piece.

Detail of the squash stipple project. I put hidden words along with the squash. Here you can see pineapple and melon.


This is called a Bio Machine. It is done with black and white card stock paper, xeroxed pictures, spray paint, and foam core (to get layers).

First Post Ever

This is my first post on my first blog ever!! How exciting. To start, I'm glad you are here *looks solemnly around*. We will begin this blog by pointing out how truly happy I am to have this blog. I can't wait to start getting my art work in here and hearing comments *clears throat as a hint to people to comment PLEASE*. As I am a busy college student who also tries to have a social life, I don't know how often I will be able to post, but I can make a promise to you, my viewers, that I will do my best and at least think about updating this site as often as possible. I hope you enjoy your trip through my world!
