Art that is inventive inspires me because it reflects upon the uniqueness and creativity of the artist. An important strength in my art ability lies in developing creative project ideas. I’ve used quite a bit of unconventional media in my art. In "Fashion Icon" I mixed canson paper, colored pencil, acrylic paint, and glossy magazine clippings. In "Dumpster Dress", I paired lolly pop wrappers with multi-colored tissue paper. I have also used acrylic paint on bubble wrap and incorporated a wire hanger into a project that used acrylic paints on canvas. I’ve incorporated wire hangers into many pieces. The collaboration of Jeff Koons’ two-dimensional artwork and Stella McCartney’s fashion design inspired me to incorporate images of Henri Matisse, Keith Haring, and Andy Warhol into my own fashion designs. Cat Chow uses media like measuring tapes and dollar bills to make dresses. Her work inspired me to continue using unusual materials like bubble wrap and lolly pop wrappers. Jim Dine and Betye Saar’s work inspired me to consider the connection between clothing and identity. I’ve researched artists via magazines, internet sources, biographical video on Keith Haring, and museum visits. In museums I’ve seen pieces by Matisse, Warhol and Koons. || 22 x 44 in.

 * Color, material, and design collaborate to make a statement through fashion. My pieces work to connect clothing and fashion with art. Initially I faced the difficulty of knowing I wanted to do art regarding fashion but being unsure of how to do so. In one of my earliest pieces, the figure did not appear to be proportional for fashion drawings because I did not know how to draw figures for fashion, which I learned throughout the course. My work developed from 2 dimensional representations of dresses to 3 dimensional dresses out of unusual media.
