Hello, my name is Madison and I’m from Westfield, New Jersey. I’m a sophomore at WPI and I’m studying mechanical engineering. I enjoy reading and watching movies in my free time.
Growing up I have always been interested in art and I loved taking art classes in and out of school. When I was younger I went through many different art-related hobbies including photography, jewelry making, and knitting. I took a couple of knitting classes in middle school, however, I didn’t like how long it took me to complete knitting projects and later found that I enjoyed crocheting a lot more since it was more suited to smaller and quicker projects.
In high school, I did graphic design for the theater club so I designed the posters for the plays and musicals. I learned how to use Photoshop and other Adobe programs through that along with a graphic design class I took. It was a great experience for me because it forced me to work with stricter deadlines and design something based on someone else’s vision.
At WPI I have taken Essentials of Art, Digital Imaging, and Computer Art and I also took Intro to CAD earlier this year. Outside of classes I have been crocheting a lot but I haven’t had as much time to focus on some of my other hobbies. I have enjoyed doing art for my humanities requirement because it has allowed me to have a creative outlet in between all of the STEM classes I have been taking.
Gorgeous – I chose this badge because of how beautiful your sketch of that eye is.
Detailed – all of your drawings show so much detail! I really like the dog
Gorgeous – That dog is cool looking! The eyes and nose are spot on!
Detailed – The detail on the eye is insane! I love your use of color
Thought-provoking — the Mamma Mia! poster made me think about how much I love that (and how long it’s been since my last rewatch…)
detailed – The attention to detail in the paper boat drawing is astonishing. I really think it’s amazing.
thought provoking – I like how you relate your art to thinks so that the viewer is directed to think about something.
Impressive – I especially think the eye and the dog are very detailed, well-done, and impressive!
Detailed- Each piece looks like it took a lot of time to complete and every choice made in the artwork was intentional. Nothing looks to be over or under done and it is all very beautiful.
Dark – The drawing of the mouse is really cool, and the clock makes it feel extra gloomy alongside the lack of color
impressive – Art is very wonderful and detailed, posters are very clean
Detailed – I like the eye drawing
Colorful – vibrant and impressive use of color
Detail – I think its super cool how you are able to incorporate a lot of detail in your pieces using all different kinds of media!
