I have an art minor with a focus in painting. I work with a lot of oil, sometimes acrylic and watercolor. I often incorporate other materials like textiles and collage into my work. Here are some of my favorites.

This painting is oil on cardboard. It was an assignment in my Painting II class to render a familiar space (in this case, a corner of my room) with some elements of abstraction.

This was the final project in my Painting I class, and it's oil on a large stretched canvas. The underpainting is in bold, complimentary colors to add luminosity, and I worked with a lot of wax medium to create texture.

This piece was in a local art show when I was in high school. It's a mixed media portrait, mostly watercolor with a bit of acrylic mixed in for opacity and ink to outline some things.

This was the final project for my Painting II class, where we were assigned to use found materials. It's a combination of acrylic and watercolor on cardboard and unstretched canvas, as well as some textile embellishments with fabric and embroidery thread and a little glitter. All of the fabric and cardboard pieces were hand sewn with embroidery thread and needles.

This is another small oil piece I did for fun and used a lot of wax medium for texture.

This is a mixed media portrait of a character in Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo named Kaz Brekker. It's a mixture of acrylic and watercolor on canvas with newspaper collage. I tend to mix watercolor into the acrylic paint with pieces like this to layer softer colors-- in this piece, most of the watercolor was used in the background to tint the newspaper and blend it with the acrylic.
