Hello! My name is Neha Kuchipudi and I’m from Windham, NH. I’m a sophomore Computer Science major here. I’ve been creating traditional art since when I could remember and I enjoy working in oil paints especially, recently I’ve been getting into digital art forms like 3D Modeling and UI/UX design. I spent my summer competing in a bunch of Adobe Creative Jams and designathons and was a finalist in them! I found that UI/UX is really something I’d like to pursue as its a more creative area in the tech field and I thought this class would be a perfect fit for expanding my knowledge.
Some of my inspirations and favs in the art/design field include Chan/flesh.png and Jaime Herrera!
Aside from art I also like playing video games like Valorant and Borderlands.
Some of my work and screens from projects:
Gorgeous – the 3D characters and the oil painting are really beautiful to look at. They both showcase the amount of time and effort you put into them.
Impressive: The 3D AOT character looks just like her from build to face, really nice job! Also, the oil painting has really striking colors and is overall a fun piece to look at because of the detailed water/shine effect.
Impressive: The 3D model of annie looks great, it really captures her essence, even without color.
Inventive – Your work is really cool, and its awesome that you were one of the finalists! Seeing your previous work, I can’t wait to see the type of projects you will be making in this class, as your work is really well done!
striking- I love your oil paint self-portrait with the koi fish! Makes me imagine a story of you laughing as you dive backwards into the pond. The scene is so vividly human.
Thought-provoking – I also wants to pursue UI/UX in the future so the interface looks particularly interesting to me. I like how consistent and neat the design looks like. Very inspiring.
Impressive: your 3D models have an incredible amount of detail in them! Well done, they look great.
Shiny- Your portrait is stunning! The subject’s expression matches the warm and carefree atmosphere of the surrounding elements in the work.
Familiar – I was a TA in your 3D modeling class with Chery last year! Seeing your 3D model is so exciting 😀 (On another note though that oil painting is beautiful holy guacamole!!)
P.s. Valorant is a FUN time
omg yes, best 3D modeling TA <3 you helped me so much with that model 🙂
Shiny – The UI/UX work you did stuck out to me a lot! I find that it’s super challenging to create clean and accessible interfaces and you did an amazing job.
Detailed – Your models and interface are really detail oriented in accuracy and the app looks aesthetically pleasing.
Shiny: The word choice might be a bit of a stretch but here goes.
I choose it because all of your work looks very polished. The models and the painting are all very clean, idk how much experience you have with these mediums in particular but it looks like you know exactly what you’re doing. I remember how my early experiences in 3D modeling were riddled with little imperfections and things I wish I had done different, but your work seems flawless. Same goes for the UI, it all looks very professional.
Striking – Your UI/UX work is incredibly sleek and it looks very good. It takes a lot of work to make something uniquely aesthetic yet readable for a user and I think that what you’ve done looks awesome. Your sculpts and your painting are also very well crafted! I love the emotion in the painting so much.
Impressive – the 3D model is so good, the hard edge modeling of the clothing/accessories and the organic muscle anatomy are both really good and realistic, but also stylized really nicely. Also, that painting has a really cool style to it and the lighting on the subject looks really nice.
I think I may go with ‘shiny’ based on the use of light in your work.
Shiny- I love the lighting you used in your koi piece! It’s beautiful
Striking – I really really love the colors in that portrait. I think you’re really talented with design, it’s not easy!! Great work and I hope to see more of your stuff
