Charlotte-Independent One

This is my first independent project. I had no real inspiration for this when I started out. I just wanted to go on a mini-road trip and take pictures for a completely different project. Turns out, I really like photography. I still have a lot to learn about photography but I'm really proud of myself and this piece.

Woven Umbrella

This is not my favorite piece, because I did not like the idea of weaving. The water color paper made it extremely difficult to weave, so it made the image off. However, if you step back you can still see what my original image was. My favorite thing about this piece is the water color. I had never really used water color before, but I really enjoyed it.

7-UP

My inspiration for this piece was the soda 7-UP. I used the colors from the bottle, a picture of me...upside down, and then made textured paint to look like bubbles. I really like this piece because it was the first one I really did on my own-I got to have a lot of say on my composition along with the colors and what not.
