2D TUMBLR PORTFOLIO
1. PEN (NO PAPER) - The pen assignment. I remember initially being utterly stumped as to what I was going to do for this project. Luckily I pulled through and came up with this. I really like the simplicity in its appearance as well as the process for it.
2. COLOR: BODY AND ENVIRONMENT - Now this one was fun... well minus the outfit but running around finding colors to play off the one was the fun part. It reminded me of my days as an elementary schooler where I’d run around with friends and had fun doing so. It was a nice experience and fun exercise.
3. COLOR: SWATCH - Probably the easiest one yet. Eyedropper tool, you surely are my old reliable.
4. COLOR: COLOR AS BRAND AS MEME | Part 1 | Part 2 - The memes were pretty tough. I originally got some friends together to help me come up with some... but they weren’t able to help me much as they had as much trouble thinking up of stuff I had. But I think they all came out pretty good, my favorite is the Lucky Luciano one (the minimalist guy) since it was the most satisfying to finish.
5. CAMOUFLAGE/DISSOLVE: 10 IN-BETWEEN SPACES - This was one of the assignments that really got my gears spinning! Even from the early stages, I was thinking of where I could implement the box and which angle seemed the most seamless.
6. CAMOUFLAGE/DISSOLVE: PROCESS - I was surprised at how much time it took for me to work on this one. After I decided my location and got to work painting, the real process began with mixing the right colors to get the exact hues I needed. Especially yellow... I’ve never seen so much failure vomit green in my life!
7. CAMOUFLAGE/DISSOLVE: FINAL - Hidden in plain sight. The whole time before presenting, I remember how dissatisfied I felt and thinking back to myself “If I had more time” or “If I had only done this”. But the critiques went so much better than I anticipated and that really encouraged me to find out what else I was capable of... even if retrospectively I was just getting myself way too pumped up.
8. THE EVERYDAY AND THE VISIBLE: SOURCE - An absolute scramble! I almost ended up not getting an object at all but lucky for me, I saved this box just as it was about to be thrown out. I was hoping we’d be able to cut and repurpose our objects into other items so that I could turn it into a suit of armor or something crazy like that. But giving it new surfaces was cool too... still, the armor would’ve been neat to show off.
9. THE EVERYDAY AND THE VISIBLE: OUT OF PLACE - These pictures are pretty straight forward. They’re places where, for the most part, the box seems out of place. I also wanted to play around with the ways the box was set up in each picture by folding it in different ways. Other than that, not really much else to see here.
10. THE SKIN OF THINGS: PROCESS - I almost forgot about the process pictures before I uploaded it. Good thing I remembered before I finished so I was able to at least have this gif. It more-or-less sums up the majority of the process anyway so it’s fine.
11. THE SKIN OF THINGS: FINAL (NEUTRAL SITUATION) - Looks like I bundled in a couple of things together here. My box in its neutral situation was also one of the in-place images.
12. THE SKIN OF THINGS: IN-PLACE - I can still remember how leaves would go everywhere whenever I’d move the box. Cleaning my trunk afterward took a while, there were so many leaves. The forklift picture was actually where I had it set up to present it but I never got to formally present my object due to time constraints, what a shame. I left the box there and haven’t looked back since. I wonder if it’s still there today?
13. FLAG: IDEOLOGY AND PUBLIC SPACE - My only regret is that I wish I had been able to display it on a store window to tie it in with commercialization and capitalism. That would’ve been excellent.
14. EVERYDAY MONUMENTS: 10 OBJECTS - Going into this one, I was mentally preparing myself to rip apart or break these items, mold them, glue them all together, and/or all of the above. I purposely avoided personal objects. I didn’t know what to expect especially after our last projects.
15. EVERYDAY MONUMENTS: PROCESS - This... was... so... painful... literally and metaphorically. When I started I worked with wire to make the framing. The wires kept scratching and stabbing me. After constructing the wireframe twice and applying half of the paper mache, I came across a problem. It was too floppy. I decided then to start from scratch and get a sturdier material to work with, so I got a 3ftx3ft plank of plywood, printed same size front and back covers, got some white spray paint and went to town.
16. EVERYDAY MONUMENTS: FINAL (NEUTRAL SITUATION) - I was so happy to have this finished. It took what felt like an eternity but I got it done and I don’t mean to brag but I think it came out extra nice.
17. EVERYDAY MONUMENTS: IN THE PUBLIC SPHERE (VIDEO) - I am dissatisfied with the video. I had it envisioned in my head but due to the store not letting me film I head to compromise. There’s so much I wish I could’ve re-done about this had I the chance, like I could’ve made a skit involving me playing the game but rather than take out a normal copy I bring out the big one. It’s just one ides but for what it’s worth this video is serviceable and gets the job done, even if it is a bit bland and uninteresting.

The first three images are mostly the beginning of the process. This was during the time we took to work on it in class. Now for the most part, this part of the process served as a starting point. I initially was trying to match up the pint with the concrete on the ground. This proved a little troublesome but I eventually got it down once I threw in small bits of yellow and red into the white and black. The rest of the images were the majority that took place at home. To give the box a sense of the direction that the lines of the concrete had, I used smal brushstrokes as well as pencil lines to convey a similar effect. Next came the painters tape I utilized to assure that I painted the yellow portion with a straight line. I already gave it a dark foundation so all I had to do was put the yellow. Added some brushstrokes, made the circles, and finally, the most grueling part of the process, the texture of the dots in which I one by one stamped each dot using the top of the brush. It was definitely and interesting experience to say the least.
