<\/figure>\n\n\n\nMy idea for this Alice in wonderland layered piece was inspired by the comic art style of Mitch McGee. I was brainstorming comics\/cartoons and thinking of layers brought me to the idea of falling then boom! Alice going down the rabbit hole. I\u2019m hoping the different layers convey different parts of the \u201chole\u201d Alice is falling into. I thought of random repeating designs and used complementary colors to contrast the layers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
LANTERN PROJECT:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n When thinking of lanterns, I thought of the traditional japanese\/korean lanterns that are in the shape of houses or pagodas. My inspiration of my design on the panels actually came from a new shirt I purchased that has this awesome dragon graphic on it. I traced this design and added a kanji character on the hand of the dragon representing different attributes I value, strength, happiness, love, and courage. I chose a flame LED light to insert because it was fitting for the dragon aesthetic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n ALTERED TOYS PROJECT: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Jogging my memory back to childhood, Littlest Pet Shops were my absolute FAVORITE toy. I remember I always wished I could make my own and use my imagination to create my own Pet Shop design. For this project, I wanted to recreate the toy and give my inner child a chance to artistically customize it, but put on a grown up spin to it. I love horror films and wanted to turn this into a spooky horror cat. I decided to add painted scary attributes such as blacked out eyes, blood, and sharp details<\/p>\n\n\n\n MISC. PROJECTS:<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n These pieces I made mainly as gifts for my parents and one for myself to keep on my desk. The Bruins coaster was a gift to my dad who loves the bruins. He is an avid coffee drinker and was in need of a new coaster. Acrylic material looked awesome and allowed the logo to really pop. Next, I made my mother this engraved print of myself, her, and my father for mothers day. I wanted to give her something I created since she has always loved my art, but also something that will be dear to her. I picked her favorite photo of our family and traced it in a minimalistic style. Lastly, I chose one of my favorite houseplants, the monstera, and ran it as my first raster engrave. It sits beautifully on my desk now! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have had a great time taking this course and seeing the amazing creations all of you produced.
