Digital Darkroom Class Progress
Week 1-2:
1.) Made my first graphic for the self-portrait assignment. Heres some different variations- loves it!
2.) Made a poster/ event flyer for 'Rock the Boat'- a tahoe boat party company:
(although they ended up canceling the party, which was a total bummer, they're having another event for halloween)
3.) Made an image with my ipad, using Adobe Sketch, of my friend Kailey as a cat. (I hope to find a way to use my ipad as a tablet this upcoming week too, its alot easier to work with than an actual tablet) I used the image for the text/image assignment- showing how different texts change the image- i stuck to the cuter fonts, so that the different texts dont show as much contrast as they could of. However, i love the different texts, even if there all kind of in the same theme

Week 3 Goals:
1.) Make guys FYVE snowboard graphic for contest- using Odin image allready made (plan to make image vector using drawing tablet, Ai, and Ps)
2.) Parallax draft- look up reference sites that i want to match/ follow/ work off of- how does the parallax effect represent me as FauxFate and an art portfolio

Maxwell Deck
If you havent checked out Nolan Apparel yet, your missing out on awesome hand-made outterwear and snowboard gear. You can find the shop in Truckee, CA or make orders online.
I made this deck about a month ago. Looks like Maxwell (the brains of the company) approves!

Kailey's Skatedeck
Most of my decks that i paint on are from Kailey Lewis.
I owed her a deck for a while, finally got around to it this year.
She loves her cat way too much.
"Sophie Deck"
Redemption Sports Art Show
So this would be the second layered-stencil i've made on my own- (haha you can tell that i still need some practice). Its of Farah Foset skateboarding with wings.
What a babe.
"Farah Shreds"
(5' by 4')
My friend Pete, whom i mentioned in my last post, got his work Redemption Sports to host an art show- where some friends and I got to host our goods.
I wanted to paint something big, yet had been busy with school, so I figured i'd give stenciling another go. I thought that the process would be shorter, but since im not very experienced with stenciling/spraypainting, making the stencil turned out to be more of a hassle than a convience. All in all, i learned from the experience and we had a great turn out at the show!
(Sold the painting titled "Elephant Eyes," to Marshall Smith)
Big L Skatedeck
Painted this deck for Pete (Murd'n Beat) Rispoli this past fall.
Met him rapping at a party my first year out in Tahoe. I was fresh from North Carolina, so naturally i started rhyming nonsense back. Haha i dont know where my head was at, but embarresingly enough, we've stayed friends every since. Pete will either have you offended or laughing at yourself with his lyrical taste.
Pete introduced me to Big L, so i had to return the favor by painting him a deck.
RIP Harlem's Finest
Flamingo Skatedeck
Another skatedeck i painted for my little cousin Gabbi before i left Oregon this fall-resprenting his love for the tropics and sweets.
"Flamingo Deck"
Erkah Badu
Heres a piece that i made in Hood River, OR before i left for school this fall.
Somehow my stepmom convinced my pops to let me spraypaint the side of our house, even though this was my first ever attempt at stencil-making on my own. Thanks Roberta!

Shout out to my little cousins Gabbi and Stephan for helping me hold up the stencils while i was painting, too- love you guys

Kiteboard For Cancer Skatedeck
So I figured that I would start my blog off with art that i made this past fall, and move on from there, until im caught up with what i am working on now.
In August i donated a board to Kiteboard for Cancer, an event held every year in Hood River, OR. (Check out http://www.athletes4cancer.org/events/kiteboarding-4-cancer for more info on the event and organization)
Here it is the beautiful Asheley Allen modeling my deck. It was auctioned off to a couple from Hawaii.
First Blog Post!!
Wow never thought that i would have a blog of my own. I've always sort of been opposed to the idea of blogging- as it seemed out of the way to read the details of someone's personal life. But as i was sitting in my web design class today, i realized how naive im being, and that i can really use a blog for my art portfolio. I think it will be interesting to make a timeline showing my progress and where some of my art ends up. So here goes nothing..
