Process Poster

This poster was one out of the three posters I had to do for my final project. It is the process of my thinking, and how I got the ideas for my final bench model. The found object was probably the main source of my thinking. But Candice Olson's quote also helped me with her words. I built plenty of process models to help me think of improvements and lead me to the final concept model with is in the middle right of this poster. My concept statement describes the idea generator, form-givers and application.

Final Bench Design

This is my final bench model created in ID 103 during this summer. I am very pleased with how it turned out. I had some issues with the different materials I used and to make them stay together and glued, but I made it. I decided to use some clear plastic in this design to let light in at all times. There are also lights at the top of the bench so if it is dark outside you can still have some type of lighting going on. This bench is for the outdoors and relaxing. I would love to have this bench outside of my own place. Wouldn't you like it outside your place?

Found Object

In ID 103, our class had to go on a hunt for an "interesting" object that we find in our paths. This object was found in a demolition site near my residence hall McEachern. I am not quite sure what it is or what it is used for, but it looks like it can be crewed in since it has indentations at the end. With this object, we had to come up with abstract drawings inspired by it somehow. At the end, we had to choose 3 out of 50 little drawings to be our "parti' drawings. From our Parti drawings we had to create a bench using the elements and principles of design that were in our Parti.

Hands

This art piece was made with black ink and a bamboo stick. I positioned my hands in different ways and arranged them on the page. I did drop some ink spots on the paper but thought it would add more to the negative space in the piece to make it look more interesting. The hand on the bottom right, is my favorite because my hand actually looks like this when I push on the table with my thumb. Creepy, but awesome.

Jack in the Santa hands

This painting idea came from some doodles that I made on my school notebooks. I do not know where these ideas come from, but I love it. The actual piece is brighter than what the photo shows. One of my other favorites.

Chicken

This painting was made in Art Studio at Timberline High School in 2009. I absolutely love this piece and am proud of it. It is a 36 by 36 canvas and made with acrylic paint. This painting took me about a week to completely finish it. I used a primary color scheme and made texture with different brushes and strokes. I will let you know that the chicken is my favorite animal and this was my first try to paint one. Comments are always welcome!

Modern Mater

This image was made by using a original palouse picture and having fun with it in Illustrator. I found this old truck picture and immediately thought of Tow Mater from the Pixar movie "Cars". This was my first try in Illustrator. I am sure I can do better with more experience.
