Some beginning tests of an Alice in Wonderland inspired art.
A braille converter for computers. It translates webpages and other computer applications of text into pins pressing against the flexible silicone surface of the converter. With this webpages would be scrollable on the converter and you could even click links with your fingers.
A tin robot's nightmare.
A very early piece I did. Could be a scene from a rough european tavern somewhere.
ABOUT ME
Background:
I am going to be a Senior in Industrial Design at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. But the past semester I have been studying Industrial Design at the Accademia Italiana in Florence, Italy.
Originally, I am from a northwest suburb of Chicago, Rolling Meadows. I thoroughly enjoy traveling around the world, which I've had the ability to do often while studying in Florence. Since traveling more, I have become very interested in photography, but my core artistic media would have to be drawing. I've been drawing religiously since I was quite young.
I fell in love with Industrial Design in college and have specialized on products for those with disabilities the past two years. Designing products through sketches, CAD, and model making, has introduced me to a new love, CGI.
Something I have been practicing regularly and hope to do even more in the future.
