The assignment for this project was to create a piece which connected with the idea of synesthesia (the phenomenon of hearing colors and seeing sounds). This piece came about as a result of my listening to Charles Mingus' Weird Nightmare and connecting hue, texture, and fragments of recognizable elements to create a layered composition. Gouache on illustration board 18x24.

Here is a bunch of 18x24 drawings from this semester's class being shown in the Waterman building at RISD. The first 5 are 20-30 minute charcoal drawings and the last is a 2 minute figure sketch.

A sketch per day...here's the Mach 40

 This is a lamp prototype that I made for my 3d class. I was messing around with different textures and opacity in each panel of the form. The light bulb is housed in a 4"x7" frame inside the form but isn't turned on in this picture.

The drawing below is a draft for an ink/paper cement assignment on giant bristol paper.

Here's a photo of it 90% done. Strips of cardboard with the corrugation removed are glued to the cardboard sections to secure them. 

Here's a preview of what will be a cardboard stool for my Intro to ID class...

Here's a gouache triptych from the previous semester at RISD for my design final. The assignment was to observe a location in Providence, RI, and demonstrate a network of relationships within the given area. This series documents the amount of activity in a traffic intersection in the morning, at noon and in the evening.
