Clothing is a large passion of mine, in addition to nature and symmetry. Elephonic is an elephant that I filled with a grid after seeing a live one at the zoo. The design is intended for clothing, however interpretation is always welcome. The assignment given for this artwork was to create art that represents yourself using technology. A large portion of that class definitely was spent bringing natural elements into technology. This piece was made in adobe illustrator, using a grid chart and the pen tool.

This illustration was one of my first assignments after switching majors from business to digital art. I had always wanted to take my drawings and digitalize them. Although, "Be Kind To The Flowers" did not turn out the way I had envisioned. I believe it was a good jumping off point. Normally, I am used to capturing mountain landscapes and focusing on their strong points. Even though Florida lacks mountains, the state makes up for it with colorful sunsets. Be Kind to the Flowers was made in photoshop with a paint tool, using a free hand sketch as reference.

Being able to depict objects in an abnormal way is a goal I normally set for myself. Even though reality is a wonderful place to experience. Creating my own interpretation of the world gives me a calming feeling. The assignment given was to draw your own idea of an item presented. Mushroom was made with pencil and paper. Beginning drawing was a fantastic class and very strenuous. I wish I knew I as going to be an art major before I threw out the rest of my drawings from that class. Oh well.
