Final

 What I chose to do for my final was create an album cover sample for my friends metal band. They won't use it I'm sure, but it was just to get their ideas going. I have wanted to create album covers for a long time and this was the perfect time to get going on one. I'm quite happy with how it turned out and its atmosphere it gives off.

Greg Dickerson: Mixed Media Art

Greg Dickerson's work really jumped out at me. Not only do i love the random swatches of fabric thrown onto the canvas with dramatic smears of paints. But i love the idea behind his work. From what i understand, he uses random memories as a theme ( a child's first blanket,part of a wedding dress,etc) And builds around it. There are so many ways to view his work and so many ideas going on, that is is so visually appealing and enticing. At times it is hard to read, but once you get an understanding of its meaning, you get  a entire different view and understanding of it. His art makes you think and has strong meaning. It freezes a point in time and builds a piece around it, making it such a strong and interesting piece to look at.

Foshay tower designs

I was trying to find a really old version of the foshay tower to
put the image with the date. Seeing it was 1929 it was naturally
in black and white and it reminded me of the really old Godzilla
film .So i combined images and threw together some effects
to give it that old vintage feel.
I also had godzilla be smaller then the Foshay Tower
to emphasize its tall height.
