VA | Design Ignites Change | Freewall

my case study for Design Ignites Change is titled 'Freewall.'

This project is about creating equality among diverse high school students by inviting them to participate in a dialogue about all things worthy of love.

I have designed two main pieces to facilitate this dialogue: a message banner and message stickers.

The message banner is 5x5 feet and looks something like a quilt made of cool-colored triangles.

The messages are triangle-shaped stickers that say “I love” and come in a variety of solid, warm colors.

Students are free to write whatever they love on a sticker and place it on the banner. The messages transform the banner from cool to warm, resulting in an all-inclusive community creation.

Edison in Color

I had a black and white photo of Thomas Edison when he was young and I just started playing around with it for no reason other than I wanted a new photo for my twitter profile. So this is where it wound up. Why Thomas Edison? Absolutely no reason. I've started a collection of high res historic photos from Wikipedia incase I discover a use for them.

summer projects

I've made some minor revisions to these projects from my illustration elective. I still don't consider them finished. 

This poster for the rescue is going to be screen printed in black and white ink on yellow paper. I still have not determined the size. The event is over but I still want to follow through with my original plan for the poster.

I want to make a wood-cut print of this American Royal Barbecue poster. I reworked the color and composition but the silhouette still needs work. I'm also not settled on the background as a solid color.
