Walk the Line


I wanted to film walking in my father's footsteps. We all have a hero who's shoes we hope to someday fill and for me, those shoes are my father's. For me this video represents how sometimes it is hard to find the path, but no matter what obstacles we are presented with, we always find out way back.

Water


First I decided to photograph water crashing against or along something to provide a sense of movement to a feature that is always flowing. Then I wanted to illustrate ways that water affects humans, seeing as it makes up a majority of our body.

Water crashing against rocks
We need to stay hydrated
We sweat
We drool
We cry

Fabric



First I tried to draw and paint on fabric and then decided to incorporate the fabric in my images

Pastel drawing of beach on top of sand glued to the fabric

Forest scene of pastel drawn on green fabric

Felt added to a pool table

Sweater vest fabric added to man

Purple fabric and white fabric added to Aladdin's outfit

The purple fabric made me think of Aladdin's vest, so I drew him on it in pastel

The fabric made me think of a sail so I drew a pirate ship with pastel and charcoal

A painted sail boat on white fabric

Eraser


I tried to create images through erasing rather than drawing, and then tried to get more hands on with using the erasers to create a 3-D object

Smiley face made of erasers

Bird house and stand made up of erasers

A pencil drawn on an eraser

Beach scene erased out of pastel

Candles erased out of charcoal

I cut up erasers and put ink on them, and then added the texture on paper

Eraser shavings

The idea of having your memory erased

Tape


I started first with drawing different objects that had some form of tape on them or in the name and then tried to illustrate images utilizing tape. Sorry again for the pictures that won't rotate. I can't figure out why it's doing that
