Our Journey

video
I made this for my sister, Megan. Its a video detailing our journey with my niece, alyvia and her recovery from a brain tumor on her brain stem. She was only 3 at the time.

Mountain Rockie Stars

I designed and a poster for Mountain Rockie Stars, they offer dance classes for all ages in the Rexburg, Id area. I had alot of fun with this one trying out different fonts, making words out of glitter, but in the end I decided simple was better. This is the end result.. not too shabby! :)

E-Bee

For my final Sr project we had to come up with a new advertising campaign for Burt's Bees. We decided to create an E-Bee website (imitates webkins). I had the fun job in designing a website where children can learn about bees, but the website also links into Burt's Bees main home page as well. This is the website I came up with. Don't the Bees look soo cute! I bet you want an E-Bee now too!

White Cat

This is one of my favorite drawings I have done yet. I took the picture of my little bro, Logan, trying to capture one of our kittens outside. I loved the picture so much that I decided to draw it my art class in high school.... this drawing is about 6 yrs old. It was done in colored pencil ( luv colored pencils). If I could do it over again I wouldn't have drawn his one finger sticking out on the left hand side. Also I learned how hard it is to draw hands... Logan is around 14 at the time... but his hands look like he is 40 plus yrs old... oh the joys of art! :)

Daddy in Advertising


I currently work for a company called NewLook International. They manufacturer concrete stains. I had to create an ad to go in a magazine that would be handed out during a big concrete convention called WOC (world of concrete). My dad got lucky and I used his head shot in this ad (love photoshop). This is one of my favorite ad pieces I have done for NewLook. :)

Self Portrait

For my photography 101 class - which was the one of the coolest classes I have taken up at college- I got to learn how to develop photographs, use a dark room, learn all about shutter speed, light, etc. :) Any ways for our last assignment we had to do a self portrait of ourselves. The picture had to describe us and we had to be in the picture. This photo is what I came up with - spur of the moment- literally the morning before it was due- at the photo lab all night type quick. :) - Its basically a picture of me being a girl- make up and all.

SUB ZERO - reptile art

THE FINISHED PRODUCT!
Envelope, Stationary, and Business Card. Made the envelope out of vellum to give it more of an "icey" feel. I also decided the business card needed an "icey" cover as well. Added a blue gradient to the business card and the back of the stationary. If people only knew the printing process behind this... every printer prints differently! Than you have to cut it out with an exacto knife! One mistake, rip, tear, or misguided glue job and you have to start all over! Than you have to face the weather and pray it doesn't rain! Ahh... so nice to not be a nervous wreck for a change!

Creating a logo is very hard to do. For this assignment we had to create a logo using a reptile. I choose to create a logo for a museum that showcased ice sculptures of reptiles as art... but yet at the same time gave important facts and info about reptiles, while raising money to help save the endangered ones.

This is the result of that thought process. SUB ZERO Reptile Art. My goal was to create a reptile in an ice cube. In the end I thought it looked more like the gateway computer box logo... but I tried. This is the finished product after many many many hours of creating, tossing and creating.
