Gray Scale Collage/Montage
![grayscale montage of nonfigurative shapes](img/montage.jpg)
A digital montage/collage in gray scale utilizing Photoshop's fill and mask features. Some fills are imported scans of graphite rubbings and marking that were done on paper and imported in. I also used the stamp tool to fill in any gaps and make the graphite imports have no breaks.

A fully digital geometrical collage using Photoshop for my final project in a 2D Design class I took. I focused on using purples and blues, as well as reflection in shapes. I utilized the selection marquee tools as well as the gradient tool.
Set of Designs
![abstract figures on circular gradient backgrounds.](img/final-designs.jpg)
Abstract figures utilizing the pen tool and vector figures on gradient backgrounds. I used the liquify tool to distort the shapes inside of the figures, as well as the background gradient. My goal was to create a sense of movement in these figures.

Using Illustrator, I created an infographic on the increase in hate crimes against Asian Americans since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. I used the vector pen tool to create the figures of people in masks to add more visual points other than just the text.
