This assignment was to create a series of three mixed media collages that capture a tool, but are portrayed differently in each piece. The tool I chose, the ink bottle, I chose simply because I thought it was an interesting shape and would be fun to view the different lighting perspectives. I used supplies such as colored pencil, gouache, ink, alcohol marker, and glue to create these collages.

This assignment was to take two reference photos (of the exact same thing) at two different times in order to capture and compare the lighting conditions. We then painted our photos using Gouache.
This assignment was to use only Ink (liquid or pens) to create an illustration. I am not the most proud of this project, and I would like to redo it someday, but it definitely helped me to understand the medium more than I did going into the assignment.
This assignment was to create an illustration using graphite to show the foreground and background perspective. We also had to take our own reference photos.

For this assignment, I decided to create a scale model of a Diet Coke bottle, using only wires. I used both black and silver wire for contrast and to differentiate between the details.
For this assignment, I recreated both a couch and a lounge chair using cardboard, fabric, and glue. They are at a 1/12 scale.
For this project, I began by creating the plaster cube to be able to carve from. I then began chipping away at the plaster until I created what I was envisioning.
