Photography

Spring 2024

A photo I took while learning about a camera's settings for class. At this point I had learned about how to mess with values, shutter speed, light exposure etc. and this was a photo I took with it. I tried to convey a warm feeling.

A poster I did for class with the theme being mysterious and dramatic. This poster idea is supposed to be an homage to old type movie posters.

An album cover I did for rap music for class. This album cover idea design was inspired by other albums and the name came from a merge of two separate artists.

Fall 2022

A graphic I put together to fit the theme of a heavy metal album for class. I did multiple album covers for different genres but this is my favorite. At this point I had gotten better at using Adobe Photoshop.

Pen and paper

14" x 17"

Summer 2022

A self-portrait I did for class. I don't usually do self-portraits but I think this really came out well as it shows my laid-back sort of tired usual attitude.

Pen and paper

9" x 12"

Summer 2022

A simple line drawing for class. Knowing that a mistake would be permanent since I was working fully with pen made me a kind of nervous but I learned to just power through.

Pencil and paper

14" x 17"

Summer 2022

A still life of household objects for class. This was a mid point assignment that I enjoyed more than I would have expected going in.
