Happy Days
2d Mixed Media
Umbrella, Paint, Stencils
Although it has a rather simple design, I am very fond of this umbrella. It is one of the few pieces that I have that feature a happy emotion. I made this to contrast a dreary rainy night. It has designs that have happy connotations. I have certain images float around my thoughts. Thoughts about how I want it to be used, about art that I want to include this in, and just a few anime I have in mind (Tamako's Market). To Me I have that that feeling nailed down. I really enjoyed making this.

Left in the Dark |
This piece is the first one here so I'll make this worth your while. I made this while feeling like I was stuck in a rut in life. It shows a pretty dark and empty room with a place I think would be enjoyable, but I'm not able to go there I can only see it from there. That is because I'm stuck in that room and unable to really do what I want to do. The picture is also quite ironic as it didn't turn out the way I wanted as I was going to make light emit from the TV realistically and adding words to the board in another language to make the atmosphere much lonelier and bleak. So the finished and polished product I wanted could be put on the TV screen making that the unattainable thing I desired.

Relief print, Monoprint, sharpie drawing.
2D Mixed System This piece is inspired by a flash of emotions I had. I was upset at somebody for something they did, but I never brought it up so they didn't know I was intentionally avoiding them. The same person approached me a few minutes later and all that was running through my head was, "Leave me alone!" and "Don't talk to me!" It was a weird moment for me as I'm never that hostile. So I decided to capture my feelings in the print. The face on the the bottom is supposed represent the facade I put up in front of that person. The person in the center represents me shying away and hiding that "real me" underneath the mask. |
Leave me alone(dont talk to me) |

Collage, Gel Medium, Scissors
2d Mixed Media When time came to make a collage, I decided at first i was going to make something that captured the sensation of touch in a piece that used many different princables, but I eventually ended up feeling like it was something more of a gimmick that I had been wasting my time on. during somewhere I lost insperation to make any art. while in this rut I was awe struck in something I found while shifting through magazines. What I found was an ad from Gucci that had all these crazy lights in dfferent patterns. The Moment I saw it I fell in love. In my piece I placed it in the center and cut out many things that had the same color to artificially extend it. There are a lot of heads around and the way they look at each other and it makes a invisible trail that your eyes follow. The heads themselves are another way I push a theme. You can't name any of the people here, because they are all forgotten about. You cant remember the names or faces of all the people. It stuck out to me that even in a form of history, they weren;t remembered. |
