Quiver Greeting Cards
description
Blank greeting cards that were required us to photograph flora. The cards were supposed to be able to be utilized as multi-purpose cards (ie. for hello, I miss you, I love you, and thank you).
The concept behind these cards was to abstract the flora while keeping its natural beauty in tact. This was an art direction project.
Imagining the Present

This was a project for Digital Imaging class. This photo is my reflection on the idea of the present (the real) for the artist. The artist can create any kind of reality and it will be real for him/her, but for anybody else, it would be a mere image.
Past and Future Vancouver
description
The design solution chosen to depict Vancouver's past and future through the use of Photoshop collaging was created in an attempt to portray Vancouver's historically beautiful landscape and natural scenery juxtaposed against the harsher industrial reality which Vancouver currently displays, and that will only worsen with time. The first poster has a focus on the future interpretation of Vancouver, using enlarged pictures of industrial scenery including metal sheeting for walls, dark concrete bridges and a jumble of telephone and bus wires in the sky.
