Graphic Design
A mockup photograph that’s a front view of a small hardcover book. The background of the book has multicolored semi-thick stripes – blue, yellow, dark gray, and crimson. In a centered white circle a third of the way down the front cover is the logo for SJ Brew. A bit further below it reads “Branding Kit” in large, bold letters. Below that, in the same font but smaller size, it says “2021”. Behind the book is a white background with shadows cast from the book.

A PDF version of one side of a trifold brochure for AES Builder & Home Improvements. The left section has the title “NEW HOME AND COMMERCIAL CONSTRUCTION” in written in bold navy blue. Below it, two paraphs read “Just like every other AES project, new home and commercial construction come with our Full Turnkey Concierge Service and 5 Year Labor Free Guarantee” and “No kits, all custom work and quality craftsmanship are what AES Builder & Home Improvements is known for. Below this are two photos stacked on top of each other with a bit of white space in between – a porch and a house. The middle section has a navy blue background with the bold title “CONTACT US”. Below that is the sentence “Receive a convenient in-home estimate at no cost to you!”. Below are three pieces of contact information. First is a phone icon with “410-574-4400” below it. Second is a location pin icon with “6915 Golden Ring Road Rosedale, MD 21237” below it. Third is an internet symbol with https://aeshome.us/ below it. The right section is the front cover of the trifold. It features a photo of a home with the AES logo on top of it. Below that are bullet points that read “Remodeling”, “New Construction”, and “Commercial Construction”. Further down are two photos – one of a kitchen and one of a bathtub. Lastly, on a navy blue background is https://aeshome.us/ and “410-574-4400” at the bottom.

This flat image is based off of the LOVE sign in Philadelphia. Instead of LOVE it says “BARB”. The letters B and A are stacked on top of the letters R and B. The letters are at an angle so that you can see the sides of them. The fronts of the letters are red, the insides are green, and the sides are mostly blue. similar to the O in LOVE, the A in BARB does not sit flat but points a bit sideways.

This design depicts a green succulent. But instead of solid color fill, the areas are densely packed with repeating words. The words are a comedic open letter to succulents, wondering why they never survive. The words are in three different colors – a green, a light green for highlights, and a dark green for shadows.

Photography
A photo of 10 water-filled glasses. There are 5 on the bottom half of the frame that are right side up in a horizontal line, and 5 that are on the top upside-down in a horizontal line. Every single glass captures a moment in which a drop of food coloring was dropped into the water and has begun to spread.

This is a compilation of sharp photographs. It is longer than it is wide and has four photos that evenly divide the image. I will go clockwise in my description, starting at the top left. This is a photo with an off white background. There is a glass two thirds full of water. Food coloring has been dropped into it. Green is spread across the bottom, darker the closer it is to the bottom of the glass. There is a trail of blue food coloring that was recently dropped in. It forms a random formation that ends in a point, pointing toward the bottom of the glass. Everything is very whispy and there are different shades of the color throughout. The next photo, the top right one, is the same image, but the colors are inverted. The background is black, the bottom of the glass has pink, and orange is slowly coming down in the glass. The next image, the bottom right is a new glass. Same white background and also about two thirds full of water. The bottom of the glas has red spread about. The red is darkest at the bottom of the glass, where is has accumulated after making its way through the water. Royal blue has been dropped in recently, and it looks like royal blue clouds that are falling down toward the bottom of the glass. The last photo is the same as the third, but with the colors inverted. The bottom of the glass has accumulated a cyan blue, and bright orange/yellow is coming down from the top of the water line.
Inverted, 2016
DSLR Camera, Adobe Photoshop
This image is a compilation of over 80 photographs. It’s like a mix between a collage and a mosaic. The photos are arranged in groups of eight around a closeup of a sidewalk. These groups resemble flowers. Eight of these groups are arranged around a circle of sky photos, with a 6-point star in the middle. The entire image also resembles a flower. There is strong balance and symmetry.

This image is a compilation of coffee beans lined up to spell out the words “PEOPLE”, “PLANET”, and “PROFIT”. There are roughly 12 coffee beans in each letter. Each word is on its own line. The background is white, making the words easily legible.

A photograph of a young, white, short-haired, blond woman. She is about to take a big bite of a six layered cake. She holds a fork larger than conventional ones and seems very determined. She has icing on her face.

This is an abstract photograph that uses a glass and multiple mirrors to create confusion and curiosity. Overall, the image is very pink. In the background there is a net of some sort. This net has rings of different color on it. Below the multicolored net are two mirrors that reflect the lines of the net. On the right is glass that distorts the lines of the net behind it. It also creates a bright white glare.
