TWO WHALES PROJECT

MIXED MEDIA ART

OG_Sketches.heic

DESCRIPTION

I took a couple of whales that I sketched into center cutouts from old photo mat boards and developed their scans into multiple mixed media art pieces.

In one of them I developed the whales in monochrome and strategically placed them around my architectural photography work. And in another, I saturated their colors to prep them for a holographic skateboard design.

BRIEF

The driving force behind this project was to create tangible art pieces, varying in style and medium, from the same simple sketches.

IMPACTS/AWARDS

- One piece of content was displayed at the

  Glenwood Springs Library in Glenwood Springs, CO.

- Both pieces of content were sold to art collectors.

VERSIONS/TESTING

Perfect alignment was necessary for this mockup. And it actually needed to be adjusted slightly after the first test print.

WHAT WENT WRONG...

In retrospect, I wish I would’ve pushed my borders all the way to the bleed lines on the bottom of this piece before it was hung and sold. However, at least it is a very minor preference discrepancy, and not a major, technically damaging mistake.
