My best art is weird. My best ideas are weird. So this piece is what I’m most proud of for this semester. What began as a simple landscape of New York City became inspired by Lovecraftian fiction and dark imagery that inspires me as an artist. The piece tells the story of an unholy Armageddon befalling my favorite city in the world as a collision of the beauty of metropolitan architecture and the visceral power of cool colors and black ink. Made with India ink, charcoal, water color pencils, pastels

I can't remember what attracted us to the Smokies in the first place. It may have been the charming quirkiness of the towns of Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg, combined with the accessibility and uniqueness of the adjacent national park.

The film I chose to analyze was the 1951 MGM film ‘An American In Paris, directed by Vincente Minnelli, written by Alan Jay Lerner and produced by Arthur Freed. This film, shot in Technicolor, is a MGM musical narrative of the life of an American named 'Jerry Mulligan’ who, after his service in the military, stayed in Paris to pursue his desire to be an artist, directed by Vincente Minnelli; starring Gene Kelly, Leslie Caron, Georges Guétary, Nina Foch and Oscar Levant; featuring music from the Gershwin

Rainer Werner Fassbinder updates Douglas Sirk’s 1955 All That Heaven Allows and gives it an overt and somewhat unforgiving political twist in his 1974 film, Ali: Fear Eats the Soul. A director takes a great artistic risk when admittedly endeavoring to remake an already genre-acclaimed classic; but rather than being derivative, Ali: Fear Eats the Soul is a fresh commentary on the xenophobic zeitgeist of post-Nazi Germany. Both films center on the lonely lives of widows who meet and fall in love with
