This is my work of video art. I wanted to create a piece that shows that when one spends time bettering oneself, we tend to find something we need but were not looking for. Whether it be self confidence or a new romance, when we put effort into becoming better, the universe rewards us.Â
This piece is my original music recorded with the help of my sister. Together we are Los Johnson.Â
What is watching you at night?
Gifs of Horror
What makes you scared? What makes your skin crawl?Â
This project was very fun. I decided to play with our emotions. There are a lot of gifs out there that make one say "aawwwwwww!" But not enough that make your skin crawl, make you turn on the lights, look under the bed, and make the hair on your neck stand up. I faced common fears such as snakes, mean dogs, and spiders, and some not so common fears like ants, sharks, aliens, and death. I feel that I covered most fears. My object was to make everyone squeamish at at least one of my gifs.
My fear is snakes. Making the gif I made was difficult, but rewarding because it felt like I was taunting the snakes. they are forever stuck in an infinite loop. [Evil Laugh]
What would you have included on my list?
He is hungry... for human flesh....
Do you fear death?
Out of the nest... and into your nightmares...
Razor sharp teeth and a taste for blood...
From above... now in your room...
They crawl... and make your skin crawl with them...
They won't rest until they find the perfect place to nest...
Oh the HORROR!!!
For starters, sorry about the white balance in my camera, I evidently need to adjust that.
Machines of the Art Age
I wanted to build a series based on the art of the 20th/21st century, but wanted to add a twist. There were several artists in the early 1900s that were artists, designers, and architects.  The fact that it was acceptable to do all of those things amazes me and I wanted to express through artwork all of these forms of artwork.  I wanted to make the trains and cars the “vehicle” that art used to accelerate into the future of art and design.
I love the idea behind this. Those machines definitely qualify as art! I like how the images capture the lines of the machines, especially against backgrounds of contrasting shapes. It makes them POP! Out of curiosity, why did you colorize the objects that you chose? I'm curious of your motive to choose those specific things. Great job!
Project #2 Â Close-ups
I feel like I am in a dream looking at these pictures. They make me feel how one feels for those ten seconds between sleeping and being fully awake. It makes me think "what is real?!" I really enjoy these. Beautiful blending with the colors!
Project 2: Selections
"The Wild Within"
First off, I really enjoyed working on this project. I felt like I could express myself creatively and that my work turned out close to what I was imagining (I’m realizing I tend to have grand ideas that don’t come out as hoped). I first went through lots of antique photos and was drawn be the ones of young women who, in most photos, are posed to be looking down or away, mostly not directly at the camera. I then decided to go on to find antique landscape photos and layer them. From there I used chalk pastels to create a monotone effect for each photo. The title for the series is “The Wild Within”. It aims to address the conforms these young women were bound to, but yet the “wild” spirit that they may have had.
These should be put in a high-end gallery! I love that the pictures all seem to be longing, it is very unique. My only critique is that I wish there were more pictures! I absolutely love them. I want to put these on my wall! Fantastic!
Project #2
Wow this is fantastic! I love the colors and the use of white space. Very powerful! I like how the words tell a different story and make the images contrast more with our knowledge of the story. Super great work!
Selections
This group of pictures represents a few of my favorite artists, bands, and groups. When I listen to them I feel like this is what I hear, if it was in color. It kind of felt like I was hallucinating when I was making these pieces, but I assure you that no laws were broken during the making of these pieces.
Just to clarify: I live in the Caribbean and cannot print out the pictures (we don't have a Staples or Officemax... There are not even postmen here, we have to go into town to pick up mail!) , so I had to improvise on my computer which means that I never drew on the pictures physically and I cannot take a picture of them "like they were in a gallery." Tumblr is my gallery.
Disappearing act!
I felt like this exercise became very political for me, especially since I chose to do "endangered species." Instead of pictures of animals, they became pictures of a world without the (name of endangered species here). It made it feel like there was something missing, which provokes the thought: why are they disappearing? Also: what can I do?
Maybe I should work for Greenpeace or something.
