Transitory Nature
Watercolor oil pastels, micron pens
The process of Sea Slugs losing their vibrancy out of water due to their coloration being largely dependent on pigment cells called
chromatophores. They require the aquatic environment to maintain their shape, function, and vibrancy, causing them to lose color when exposed to air and deprived of water pressure.
This collection explores this process with the final lineup gradually increasing in color and texture to represent the seaslug going
back in the ocean.
Toys ARE Us
Watercolor oil pastels, oil pastels, markers, micron pens
Toys are us is a mini collection inspired by the idea of our childhood toys growing up with us. For this collection, I focused on the
idea of me and my brother growing up playing with hot wheels and having racing competitions with them. As I've gotten older, I've left the hot wheels behind and moved onto my car and having races with the world.
