Inspiration for this piece came frim my love of nature, so I surrounded my name with two ferns and added flower bud accents to the ends of my name. I enjoy the symmetry of the piece, and the colors are very complementary. The piece is done in acrylic and ink.

Metamorphosis
A fun story behind this piece: While working at McDonalds one day a woman walked in and asked what kind of fish our fish filets were made with. I like to have a sort of morbid sense of humor so I quietly replied to my coworker "they're made with the flushed pet gold fish of little children" and there birthed the idea of this piece.
I made this from acrylic paint mixed with water and did the outlining in ink. I really love the cartoonistic look I gave the fish, as well as how he seems to realize what he's becoming.

Sketch assignment
I decided upon the mix of bug and humam for my sketch piece. I thought it'd be fun to make a moth woman, but to make her more of a moth than a woman.. I like how creepy it looks.
I used colored pencil on acrylic paper, the pencils blend very nicely but not as much as on vellum.
Key Holio
I'm going to start by saying I think I used the wrong medium for this piece. I love the way oil pastel blends but it just can't give me the detail I want.
My keyhole piece is a connection between the fantasy and digital world through a keyhole like portal. I thought the contrastin environments would look really trippy together.
Though I think I used a wrong medium I still like how this piece eventually turned out. It wasnt my favorite at the beginning and I lost love for it, but I rekindled those flames when I added more to it.
