My 16×16 image is meant to be a recreation of “The Girl With the Pearl Earring” by Johannes Vermeer. I tried to recreate the more striking aspects of the painting such as the young woman’s mesmerizing gaze and the color of the eponymous pearl earring as best as I could. Some details of the painting,
In this 16×16 pixel image, I created a warrior with an eyepatch on his left eye. He has the full beard and he is wearing a cloak, showing his strong Pectoralis major muscle. He is standing under a willow shouldering a sword with his arm cro…
I found myself a bit overwhelmed by the producer role to be quite honest. I had experienced the other two roles and completed them with ease and so I did not think the role of the producer would or could be all that different from the others. I can confidently chalk the ease of the …
We often assign the word “murder” with special properties such as “brutal”, “bloody” and “masculine”. It occurs that podcast producers, […]
The scene on the left(in case there was any confusion) was taken from Pawn Sacrifice. The scene with Liev Schreiber was quite difficult to re-create. […]
I really enjoyed this project– it reminded me of activities we did in slam poetry club in high school. I found it so enjoyable that I made 3 visual poems. The first one (with the trees and the road) says “Hope that distance to somebody shines an eye.” I felt like this phrase encapsulated the …
This piece is made from pg 9 of Ragged Dick. The words I have chosen go in this order: unhappy, tried to break free, But failed, swallow fate, Life. It veers towards the more negative vibe.

It is a rather pessimistic view of the world, but I take it…
For this sketch assignment, I knew I wanted to recreate a horror movie scene in a library. One because I personally enjoy horror movies and two because libraries look somewhat the same universally so I thought that a library could be a good background to match any scene that involved shelves of books. I haven’t watched this movie, Kristy, but I thought it would be fitting since it is a story about a girl who decides to stay on campus for Thanksgiving…
I used the second page of the chapter 6 of Dickens‘s novel Great Expectations to create this visual “poem” (though strictly speaking, it is not a real poem). The way I was trying to make it in the beginning was that I jumped around paragraph and paragraph to pick up random words, with an intention to use “I” and “You” to create this poem. I wanted to completely jump out of the original book’s context and made something totally different. But I found out it was so hard to make it possible, so I changed my strategy to read through the page …
To distress they be born Success made hard Where indomitable wealth stewards the creation of wealth in no man This poem, which I am calling “The Wall,” was created by selecting words off of a book page. This particular page was discussing the life of Andrew Carnegie, who many will know as a steel
