My Life


These are two photos from My Life. The first is of my best friend Ashley. The second is of shoes because I love shopping and shoes.

Sandwiching Negatives

I sandwiched two pictures of my brother on a teeter totter to create this image. I think it turned out really cool.

Journal 18: Senior Art Show Poster

This is the poster I created for the Senior Art Show. I used three of my favorite pictures to use as examples. I created the text and then chose colors from the images to tie it together. I chose brighter colors for the text to make it stand out and even put strokes around the text.

Journal 17: Collection



These are a few images I created experimenting on photoshop. The first I faded the text into the image so it looked like it was part of the image, using a gradient. The second is where I experiment with the technique I used for my poster. The last image is a photo that I took this year. I cross-processed the image, which is basically playing with the curves to make the image more vibrant.

Journal 16: Hand Colored Print

For this journal assignment, we had to hand color a print on photoshop. I chose this picture that I took last year. I decided to just color the tricycle and converse because they were the most prominent objects and it makes them stand out more.

Journal 15: Drink and Drive Poster

I created this poster of the stats for drinking and driving at our school. We were told to use a picture that we have taken in photography, so I chose one of my brother doing a cartwheel, kind of like he was celebrating. I then typed the text and pushed it through the photo so the text was the picture. I then put a stroke around the text just to make it easier to read. Finally, to pull it all together, I created a gradient on the top and bottom of the poster.
