Doodle of the jaguar from the “Hero Twins” statue found in El Azuzul, an Olmec archaeological site in Veracruz, Mexico.

Ideas of what to put on a copper round. Armadillo sketch ended up inspiring my mezzotint, Burrow.

Studies done of architectural plant scrolls. These shapes ended up inspiring my shape language in my sculptural relief piece, Untitled.

Drawn during class. Mostly an automatic drawing and playing around with my pens and line confidence.

Thumbnailing sketches. The first one is a sketch idea that I’ve been trying to decide on what medium it wants to be finished in for years now. Its first iteration was in my 2022 Foundational Drawing I class.

Vagina in a rose, surrounded by hands.

A drawing and (partial) study of my cat, Juno, plus some doodles of fish.

Just some sunflowers, was playing around with adding more color to my sketches via colored pencil.

A drawing done on the front of one of the cards I had given as a gift to my friend's family at his funeral.

A drawing done on a card that I had written personally for my friend’s mother to give to her at his funeral.

My friend, Laurence, passed away in a car accident on July 24th, 2025, and I was very lucky that his family was generous enough to fly me and some of his other friends out to the service.

Page filler of some forget-me-nots, done while I was definitely supposed to be paying attention during class.

Sketch study of a picture of some irises that I had taken photos of at the Denver Botanical Gardens. The same photo and this sketch ended up inspiring my Iris Trio painting.

Plein air sketches done for my Art and Nature art history class at the Western Colorado Botanical Gardens of their Aldabra Giant Tortoise, Knobby, as well as a butterfly and some smaller succulents.

A drawing assignment done for my Color Theory and Design class, where the goal was to see how positive and negative space affected the subject and composition. All of the shapes used in this drawing were taken from botanical photography that I had done.

Planning for my painting assignment, the color wheel reimagined.

Sketches of different perspectives that ended up being overlayed over one another in my final painting, Alternate Perspective Exercise, as well as more plans for the color wheel reimagined.

I actually don’t have a photo of this finished project, but these were studies and sketches done to analyze and dissect the shape langage of a monarch butterfly wing, that were then put into different compositions.

The spiral composition drawing from my shape language project.

Finished drawing of my left to right composition done for my shape language project.

Studies done of an American Kestrel and a Barn Owl.

These were done to help me improve my value work in my pen drawings, as well as just studies of the forms. I like mushrooms!

The other half of my tomatoes in acrylic pen. I really enjoyed playing around with the layering capabilities that these pens had.

A fun exercise in drawing tomatoes with acrylic pen. I just think they’re neat.

Studies done in the North American Wildlife section of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science.

Studies done at the Denver Zoo of various animals. The time that I finished the sketches is written nearby. Great exercises in drawing from life and having to get a form down quickly due to the animals moving.

Some sketches of myself and my two friends, Olivia and Ava, done to play around with a more stylized portrait style.

Drawing of my cat done from a photo of her that I took when she was refusing to move off of my pillow.

Another drawing of my cat, this time done from a photo of her that I took when I was in the living room and she was under my coffee table. She was unhappy that I was not paying sufficient enough attention to her.

Sketch studies of an osprey. The small thumbnail was turned into a sketch for an aluminum etching.

Studies done at the Denver Art Museum of various artworks.

I had gone there and drawn these the day after my grandmother passed away. It was not only a good exercise in replicating art forms in my own work, but also a very healing place to go to. Growing up, my grandmother and I would always go to the Denver Art Museum together, so being there and being surrounded by memories and artwork was a good experience in the midst of what I would consider to be the biggest loss in my life.

Some example of a sponge art project that I had done for a “Messy Art Week” children’s summer camp. This was a super fun project to do with the kids, and they had a great time learning about how the colors mixed and overlapped with one another, as well as how to create visually interesting forms with one brush stroke.

To achieve this, paint was painted on in 3 stripes on a foam brush, and then dragged across a paper.
