luminescence.

Inspire.

explosion.

ray.

blooming.

geometric.



















This project was about light. (sunsets, sunrises, moonlight, lamplight, etc.) My concept was an explosion. By using broken mirrors, the light exploded across my project and gave the appearance of being "hot". My project went through many process' as shown above and also displayed different concepts. I found the concept for mine by asking a random person what they thought it was. They said "explosion" and I knew that was it. I am very proud of my project and pleased with how it came out.

Dialogue.








These pictures are from my final product.







Second Attempt.






My first attempt.


This project was supposed to illustrate two spaces of dialogue using 12 skewers and 12 4x6 bristol board pieces. The first attempt was too messy for me and my second attempt didn't seem to create two pieces, so I decided to fold the 4x6 cards and it seemed to work better. Over all, I was happy with it. I thought it was an interesting pieces, but I do need to work on my craft.

Cross-hatching




Sticks and Cell Phone

For this project, we had to zoomed in drawings of our cell phones and a stick. As we further progressed, we had to make it look more graphically pleasing and cleaner. We went from separate 16 drawings of the two, to 64 of the two, then to 32, 16, 8, and finally 4 combining them more along the way.













Then, after we had our final four drawings, we had to create 3D models to represent our drawings.




From one of our models, we had to do orthographical drawings.

12 Skewers and 12 Cards..What?

This is my final product:





This project has probably been the hardest one for me yet. The assignment or the "rules" of the project were to create something that speaks "unity" with 12 skewers and 12 4" x 6" cards on a 12"x12" base. At first I thought this would be easy enough, I was utterly wrong.

This is my first couple sketches of ideas.
Funny how things don't work out.
My inspiration was a football, but I wanted to make it
look modern and simple. I wanted to curve the skewers to give the
appearance of a football fit between straight edge planes.

My quick 3-d sketch of my original idea using straws and bristol board.

My attempt at curving the skewers after soaking them for 24 hours.
I even blow dried them!

After about 3 other attempts, this is what I came up with. The idea was a city skyline.
I felt like this had nothing to do with unity and to completely start over but still keep the curvature theme going on.
