Graphic Design

This semester in graphic design we were given an assignment to take over 50 photos of ourselves in different poses and wearing different clothing. We then had to rip up all the image, create a new image, blow it up life size and create a cut-out, then take that cut-out around the city and photograph it.

Prime Time

I recently had three watercolors, five graphite drawings and a photograph featured in "Prime Time" exhibit at my school. The exhibition was displayed in a gallery at 315 W 21st street and featured the artwork of many students from the Visual and Critical Studies Program as well as Fine Arts. This was the first time Visual and Critical Studies has ever exhibited student artwork and I was very proud to be able to participate.

Summer 7

I have been spending my summer working seven days a week (I'm kind of a jane of all trades doing housesitting, babysitting, and working at the Jewish Community Center). But I have still been trying to keep up on the photography. Anyway, this is a post about bugs!

Summer 6

Looking over all the photos I have taken this summer I am discovering that I have some strange obsession with clouds. I have also learned that taking a photo while driving over the George Washington Bridge (of doom) is probably not a good idea.

Summer 5

So these are my two best friends:
Julia and I drove up to Memphis, NY to visit Steve Smith. I'm really starting to get the hang of using the DSLR, I got quite a few good shots that I'm happy with.

Summer 4

The past few nights there have been some insanely intense thunder storms. (too many adjectives?) I stood outside with my camera trying to press the shutter when the lightning struck. Unfortunately it was way too cloudy to get a picture of the lightning strike but how the clouds were illuminated was amazing. I also took a video of the thunder and lightning but there is a lot of background noise due to the amount of wind. Got to love summer storms.
