Sharpie Art

So I'm a huge fan of this duo, Kalin and Myles. Kalin is the singer and Myles is the rapper. I absolutely love their music so I created a poster for fun with their names. I used a ruler to make my letters really straight and used my sharpies to create the very colorful background. Took a long time because the poster is big but I finished it! And I'm really proud of it actually. I hope they get to see it someday. That would make me really happy. I love making posters, it's fun and keeps me busy. 

Fun Photography

I took pictures of my friends Krissy and Magan, I thought it would just be fun. I love Krissy's picture, it makes me laugh. 

Photography

This is a camera that belongs to my teacher Mr. Moncrief and I decided to use it for my composition assignment because I really like older cameras and the way they're built. I love the lighting on this photo and the blurred background. 

Photography

I absolutely love photography and this is a photo I took in Florida in front of my beach house. My favorite part about it is how my camera caught the texture of the flower. 

Anime

I really like drawing anime people even though I would really like to learn how to draw real people. Still haven't gotten that trick down yet but I'll get it soon. Hope you like!

Happy Halloween!!!













In the spirit of halloween, I found two amazing pumpkin carvings. The first one is from The Nightmare Before Christmas and the second is and Indian chief. Happy Halloween and eat lots of candy!

Cereal Box

My froot loops cereal box that I fixed up in Adobe Illustrator. I traced the original shapes with the pen tool and later filled them in with their original color. My favorite part was redoing the cereal and the bowl, I changed the original color which was white to blue. I did that so that the milk in the bowl could be more distinctive. It was a lot of fun and this is my finished product!

Magnolia

This is a flower doodle that I did partially in class and the rest at home. It's not a magnolia of course but I like to call it that because it reminds me of a friend named Magnolia. I had my sketchbook and grabbed my pencil to start doodling. I have a habit of doing that when I get bored XD 

Foxy Wolf

My foxy wolf I drew a while back. I wanted a cartoon animated wolf but he sorta turned out looking like a fox too and everyone I asked agreed so he became foxy wolf. I used my shading pencils I have to do his fur and my eyes are my favorite part, it makes him just adorable. Foxy Wolf still needs a name though (:

Self Portrait

With Photoshop, the tools are a tad more complicated than Illustrator. Illustrator is easier to get a grasp of when using it and you can find your way around it when you start out not knowing anything about it. In photoshop, you most likely need a teacher to help you. Rastor graphics are composed with graphics and vector graphics are composed with paths. I learned to use the pen tool and whart it did was create shapes on my face to fill later with different colors. My favorite part about this assignment was when I got to fill my face with the color and could see how many different shades my face had. It looked better than I thought it would. My least favorite part was making the shapes because it was time consuming and you had to be precise or you would have gaps in your face. If I was given this assignment again, I think I’d do a lot better because I’ve done it once and now I know that I can improve my shapes and add more details to make the face look more appealing.

Bajoula


While playing around in adobe photoshop, I created a little piece that someone else named Bajoula. I used the paint brush and a shadowing tool to create it. And ta da! The vibrant colors are my favorite part about the piece.

I created a mosiac of my face using Adobe Illustrator and this is my finished product.

Influence Map

This is my lovely Influence Map that I created. As you can see, Chris Brown is the biggest influence in my life. He inspires me to do my best and work hard to achieve my goals. While making this map, I pulled a few pictures off the web and arranged them in a way that I thought would make it easy for people to see what my biggest influences and likes are. I love animals and had to include my two favorite animals which are wolves and red pandas. My favorite color is red so I included that color in there. I love to draw sharpie art as you can see in the two pictures of sharpie drawings at the bottom. Lastly, you can see my favorite shows Castle, and Finding Carter at the bottom right corner. I have very few influences but have a lot of likes. Voila!
