This was a diorama I created based on Robert McCall’s Searching For Life, an originally 2D painting that I wanted to bring some depth to. I had a lot of fun cutting out and painting each layer, and even added LED tape to light the inside of the box.

This was a self portrait where I split the page in half to show the skeleton inside of me. I really like skeleton imagery so it was nice to practice painting one!

This log cabin was done as an introduction to acrylic paint, and taught me a lot about blending and color. I really like the rocks under the porch in particular.

This was a drawn from life painting based on a door in my apartment. There is even a smaller version of the painting within the painting, where this now hangs!
