Dripping, Stop Motion Video, 2010

This video shows the additive process. Each photo was taken after more graphite was added to the original drawing, then pieced together to look as if it is continuous.

Light Up, Video, 2010

This video is meant to show the beauty of a lit candle and the abruptness of the flame being extinguished.The flame being blown out symbolizes the end of something that was once great.

Self Portrait, Photograph, 2010

This piece focuses on the light cast from the right corner of the composition and reflects off the individual shards of broken mirror.
 Dark Hours 1, Photography, 2010

I was interested in the juxtaposition of the graffiti covered wooden fence that being overgrown with foliage.The only light is from the flash of my camera, leaving the sky black and creating a sense of eeriness.














 Fight, Photography, 2010

This close-up portrait shows an individual who appears to have gotten in a fight and has been left bloodied and bruised.I used blush and eyeshadow to create this effect and slightly edited the image on iphoto to enhance the colors and the contrast.
Dark Hours 2, Photography, 2010

This photo is also quite mysterious due to the dark sky, like its counterpart. There are no people around and the structure seems to be abandoned.
