color wheel

This project was taking the colors of the color wheel and putting them in order according to color. I chose to do the colors in snow globes because I like to collect them. This piece was difficult getting all the colors the right shade, especially the red, red-orange, and orange, because the colors are already very similar. In this piece, i used acrylic paint mixed together to create the different colors.

photo book cover


This piece is the cover to my accordion photo book. The photo in the middle is a picture that I took in london during vacation, then I altered the color so it looked antique. Around the outside I used painted the back with white acrylic, and used a pattern stamp with black ink. I like the way that the stamp did not show up in some places, because the black against the white goes nicely against the brown cardboard behind it.
