This class really taught me that mixed media is a great medium to use for projects that can be both VC and “Fine Art” related. I really enjoyed working with a large scale printer to not have to work within a certain boundary line.

without the french saying on it yet.
From quirky line illustration to travel photography, my artwork is diverse and sophisticated with narrative purpose. Wild huh?! Choosing between photography and illustration has and will always be a battle that I face when designing a space or presenting an idea. But why do I have to choose? The answer is…ready…I don’t! If anything this class has taught me that mixed media is something that is completely acceptable and totally worth trying.
For my final project I wanted to combine photography and illustrative design to get across a quirky photography really has a sophisticated quality behind it. I took this photography in Paris, France last winter and really thought it said a great deal and had beautiful movement. My overall vision of this piece was to add a quirky line illustration yet not taking and attention away from the photograph. I created this piece to allow the viewer to see they can add illustration to a photography and mesh very well together while getting a concept across.
Currently my work consists of line art illustration in digital form with creative writings to go along with it. It fits in with my previous work of photography and still allows me to be the storyteller that I am.
With the contemporary art world being pretty much anywhere and everywhere, I feel that my art most certainly is a wonderful asset and allows people to look at it as something fresh that adds some flavor to ordinary processes.
Here is my final for the propaganda project. Salina_Go Red
This is a revamp of my 3rd project, this time I used a recognizable figure to get my point across.
This is my 4th project, a simplified pamphlet for Judaism. I wanted to show an absurd approach and demonstrate that religion is more complicated than a simple instruction manual.
My inspiration stems from my interest in interior design and the manipulation of spaces. Each piece becomes a mixture of organic and geometric shapes that exist cohesively and flow to create a conversation throughout the piece. Together, blue prints and patterns that may be found in interiors produce a world around the viewer generating a narrative and space for the viewer to live in. This work includes a combination of ideas that I have created an area for. The wallpaper and couch’s geometric shapes work with the tile on the floor to construct an optical illusion in the space. Together these three separate entities create a room design that could be recreated in real life. Making something that is functional in its design or plans that can become functional is something that I challenge myself with in each piece.
