This bird is comprised of multi-sized, multicolored buttons.
This Tank Top was inspired by the wry delicacy and vibrant color of morning glories.
This painting was recently auctioned off to a local hairdresser along with two other paintings that helped raise money for a Boys' Home.
I worked on a logo for a hair salon and boutique. It was an online contest.
I recently reconstructed and modified a logo for a local moving company. The first and original image was used, however, I had some fun revamping the logo and creating the cats as vectors in the second image.
This painting is sewn to a South Carolina flag. It was created in 2005 when South Carolina was number one in the nation for domestic violence against women. Additionally, we had the least number of women in politics, which is ironic. My subject here is exposed, beaten, yet looks angrily at our government for their apathy. She clings to our state flag to comfort her. The lamp shines an eery light on this hideous problem that is all too often ignored.
The eyes of this girl are made of buttons, an item used to open and close things.
This piece was created on an old science chart depicting the circulatory system and the nervous system. It seemed perfect to play on those two systems by portraying the beginning of a new relationship. The new couple are just starting to get their feet wet, their veins have begun to connect, although not completely. They are showing parts of their "insides" to each other, but also concealing a lot.
My senior show focused on how people exist in layers and how they choose to reveal or hide parts of these layers to the world. I used oil paint on a shower curtain and painted on the front and the back to physically represent my content in medium as well as subject matter. The window symbolizes what is revealed while the blinds represent what is hidden from the world. The textual part is made of bits of song lyrics, poems, and words spoken by real people that stuck out to me. The girl and the street are in Salem, Massachusetts.
This image consists of layers of tissue paper, pages from the Bible, a photocopy, and oil paint. The photocopy is a picture of my sister and me riding an elephant at the circus. I chose this image, because it is symbolic to our coping with my father's death as young children. The elephant represents our strength in overcoming such a traumatic event.
