Water
​color

Water color based on animals that lost protections under the changes to the Endangered Species Act made by President Trump.

Greece

Oil painting done at Midlothian Art Academy. The subject is of the port city in Lefkada, Greece. 

Ring making

Visual arts center - January 1&2
The goal of this two day course was to make three stackable sterling silver rings. I brought in multiple fabrics - some worked, some didn't - to imprint onto the thicker rings, and I filed the designs on the thin ring.

Summer project:August

Finishing up this summer project was a race against the clock. There was a lot to do and many things went wrong. painting the lettering was fairly simple, but placing the lights was not. Luckily I figured it out and with some help from my dad I put it all together with a strong base. In order to make it fit in my car the letters "USA" are strongly velcroed on. This does make it unable to lean on the bottom which means during the presentation I will have to securly hang it. Another issue as far as hanging I persieve is the strength of hanger on the wall. For my normal paintings it is sturdy, but I fear that they may not be able to hold up my painting.

The idea is to connect my past works of a throw away society into the thing that started this motif - signs.

Process: Decaying apple

I am on my third attempt of this project and have found the method I will be using for the final project. I first tried to carve the apple into the shape of a brain - this did not work well. After some more research I decided to cut into the side and that seemed to work on my scrap apple. I also have drawn out the overall layout for the pictures I will be taking over time.
