Transparent

                         For the transparent pieces, I wanted to respond to images that I found
                     of my mother and I. By taking transparent paper, I was able to control what
             I wanted the images to look like. The one of just my mother I changed her hair and
                        shirt color. For the image of me as a baby, I created a comical photo.

Wood

                           My intentions were to create an abstract ocean piece.
                           By cutting the wood it created chaos for the viewers eyes
                           but gave them a reality of the ocean. The abstract lines give
                           the piece movement.

Cardboard

                            My theme for the cardboard pieces was to be resourceful,
                           the cardboard I had cut was used to create abstract lines using
                           complimentary colors. The remaining pieces were used to create
                           abstract shapes.

Tape

My overall intentions were to give the viewer's a sense of time. The stages of a tree

are based over a long period of time and are usually taken for granted. In the mature 

stage of the tree the shadows accent that it is in full blossom. At the end of its life span,

the tree is left with nothing but a few leaves.

Walk the Line

In this video I wanted to portray to the viewer's how

much paper/wood products we use daily and how much

of it goes to waste. I ended the video showing the source to all 

the paper/wood products, a tree. I feel we take advantage

of everything tree's provide us with, and we should learn to take that

into consideration.

Water Paintings

           I started with a blank wall and began to draw what came into my sight.

 I have also been into riding my bike everywhere I go.

 As I began to look around, I came across a tree that sparked my interest.

 I also live in the sunshine state, and it was a beautiful day.

 I then added in some floating clouds and concluded my day.

 I took a puddle that had already created and gave him some character.

 I stepped in the puddle leaving a trail back to the puddle, portraying that people have walked out of it.

 I love skateboarding and have always wanted to skate this ledge.

I ended with many different puddles and footprints connecting them all, creating different worlds of puddles.
