Creative Work Portfolio

By Lauren Jeong

Creative work outside of class

(projects I do just for fun)

This is a collage I made using cut out pieces of different materials such as magazines, newspaper, tape, foil, graph paper, note book paper, and construction paper.

These are some small drawings I did on photo paper. I used Sharpie markers and in some of them I used nail polish remover to create a water color effect on the photo

paper.

^ a mug I designed

Paper crane mobile in the making…

Some of my digital photography

The files I have on my laptop at school are limited…

Projects from high school graphic arts

class(using Illustrator and Photoshop)

For this project, we used illustrator to create a stained glass picture using gradients.

This project was to create a picture out of the lyrics of a song, that fit with the story of the song. I chose The Climb by Miley Cyrus.

I designed this poster, using illustrator, for the student film festival at my high school.

Using Photoshop, we created a project that included a picture of ourselves and some things we liked. I chose to do a journal layout type thing.

This project was to create a morph of ourselves using Photoshop. Naturally, I morphed myself into a panda.

This is the mock-up for the screen print of the shirts we made in class. I decided to make a shirt for my brother’s “band” for his Christmas present.

This is a picture of the final product. He really liked it!

Using Illustrator, we made drawings of a geometric shaped object and an organic shaped object.

Using both Illustrator and Photoshop, we colored and added textures to a picture that we drew. This is not the final one with all my textures because that file was unable to convert for

some reason.

Some of my work from STA 110: Drawing I

We created our own still lifes and drew

them using searching line…

We continued drawing the still lifes, but we added the technique of organizing lines to help get proportions correct…

We were introduced to planar analysis and practiced by drawing individual objects.

Still drawing still lifes, we added planar analysis and some new techniques to try to create atmospheric prospective as well as working on composition…

For the drawing day at MSU, our class went outside to draw live models for the first time, still using the same techniques learned in class…

To prepare for the live models in class, we now practiced drawing people instead of just still lifes. We worked on proportions and measurements of the body by using heads as a measurement…

We started drawing the live models in class using all the techniques we learned in class throughout the semester…

We did graphite drawings, utilizing searching line, and using an eraser to create highlights…

We drew one of our classmates ^… and then did a self-portrait ^

We had a mixed-media day where each person brought in an unconventional drawing tool or one we didn’t use in class, such as eye shadow, tape, charcoal etc.. I brought in Raisinets.

Tape, charcoal, and oil pastels Eye shadow and charcoal

Nail polish and colored pencils Raisinets, eye shadow, and crayons

After our mixed media day, we picked our favorite medium to work with, and drew more still lifes. I chose charcoal…

This is the beginning stages of my final project. The project was to create a self portrait that says something about who I am beyond the surface.

This is the final product.(It looks better in person. The camera was having a difficult time with the lighting)

I would include the first project of STA 113: color and design, but we

turned them in and have not received them back yet…

Thanks for looking! (:
