The Hurricane

This project was very a very difficult one for me. I think I struggled with showing what I wanted to say, and how I wanted it to be represented. I decided to depict my struggle between living in Florida and living in Pennsylvania. I miss my friends and my family in Pennsylvania, but I know Florida is where I am supposed to be right now. I have so many negative associations with Pennsylvania and some of the things that I have been through. I also have so many positive memories associated with Pennsylvania and I am conflicted and fighting with where I want to be. Pennsylvania will always have a piece of my heart, but I am very grateful to be in Florida now.

I changed it to Mac OS with no dither and only

The bright colors and hippie like patterns makes the mug special. When we were assigned this project, this mug was the first thing that came to my head. I wanted to see if I would be able to create one of my favorite objects on the computer. I am very pleased with the results. It took me about three hours because I had to hand trace every single flower and leaf on the mug. I am very pleased with the results.
