Starving Artist

My photo
I'm a senior in highschool with an unhealthy love for illustration and comic books. My ispiration comes from surrealism, but lately my interests in psychology and art therapy have been a raging force in the subject matter of my work.

Breath #9

Rhythm/balance/movement/repetition. I wonder if i can use this :)

breath #8


I love the idea of balance through perfect symmetry. The photos in the back create an interesting contrast and invented texture. I have a ton of different versions of this piece with different patterns, pages, and some portraits.

For this piece I want to focus on the pop art style by Shepard ( the famous guy who created the giant OBEY sticker) I have this idea of recreating this photo of mine as an illustration where the blue rockem robot Punch's the red one and the head goes beyond the frame.

I want to fix this in photoshop to make the transition smooth between the wave and the butterflies.

Breath #5


I loved the tones and colors of the rose, so when I began my background I splattered the colors from a bright yellow at the center to a crimson red at the edges. instead of flatly drawing the outline of the rose I wanted rather, to imply the edges with the dark red and burnt sienna which really gave it a lovely contrast.

Breath #4

For this piece I want to focus on the figure ground relationship, due to the nature of its size, and proportion/scale. By using the smaller blocks as a reference point I'm going to photoshop building blocks through out the great wall so the building blocks become the great wall.
