FOAM
Samus Armor
Built in 2014, this was the first set of EVA foam armor I ever created. I patterned it out of posterboard and then transferred the templates to foam. The pieces were then coated in Plasti-Dip and painted. Lighting in the shoulders, helmet, and gun was added later.

FOAM BOARD & PAPER
Mellon Collie Set
In my first production design class, we had an assignment to create a stage set based on a short piece of music. We also had to use lighting and movement to convey mood. I was inspired by the Smashing Pumpkins’ instrumental “Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness” and emulated the album art style in the design of the set (which, in itself, emulated the style of Georges Melies). For the transition, I made the second set able to be lowered down from the top of the model and I also changed the lighting to fit into a more warm, dreamlike state like the music.

FOAM
Rock Is Dead
This piece was actually a school project that I modified to put on Redbubble. In the original project, we had to divide our piece into sections that each had their own color scheme. For that one, I had a starburst coming out of the record. I didn’t particularly like it and I had my own ideas on how to make the piece look as good as my original idea, so after I had finished what was needed for the assignment I redid some of it and got it to the point that you see right now.

Bad Habit Concert Poster
The local rock band “Bad Habit” asked me to design a poster for them to use for their next gig. I wanted to incorporate a few “bad habits” into the design as well as keep it confined to their colors, red and black, so this is what I came up with.

Don’t Fear the Reaper
This was another piece I did for a school project. We had to create both a warm and cool color tone and could do any design we wanted.

Comic Collection
In late 2019, I started experimenting with different styles of digital drawing, since before then I had stuck with a style that was slightly more stylized and didn’t have any lines or texture. With this style, I can add both, and it gives a bit more life and movement to the artwork I make. I’ve always loved comic books, and some of the painting ideas that had been floating around in my head for a while were better suited for a dynamic environment – one that my previous styles just couldn’t deliver on.

Coffee Shop
After drawing some small scale sketches in this style, I decided to draw a full scene. It was the middle of January and had been raining for the past week so that’s where I got my inspiration from!
