Projects

Here are a few different projects that make up my portfolio. The works range from digital drawings, traditionally-drawn works, video projects, and coding assignments. They range from my high school era to current works. Click 'view more' under any section to see the project's dedicated page.

The Creatures of Sunshine Island

This was my Senior project that was part of the Bachelor of Fine Art (BFA) Show at UIUC. This is my passion project that showcases many of my own original characters and species.

Portraits

A series of portraits I've done over the years - traditional and digital / friends and family as well as fanart pieces.

Photocard Project

This is a project I did Junior year. The characters you see are from a book I've been writing since 6th grade. Developing "cards" for them was so fun!

BTS Fanart Project

As a long-time fan of BTS and an artist, I found that they brought me some of my biggest inspiration. It was only a matter of time before I started making fanart of them. I have made keychain designs for some of their music videos.

Zyfire Drawings

"Zyfire" or "Zyfire7" has been my artist alias for a long time, so Zyfire acts as my mascot character. She is 'The Spirit of Creation' and acts as a separate being/character from myself. Yet, I have this extra attachment to her as she was designed based on everything I stand for.

My Other Characters

This page is dedicated to all of my other original characters besides Zyfire. First, my part-mammal/part-reptilian species, 'Elivis', and secondly, all of my other individual characters.

Video Works

Here are my video projects from my Junior and Senior years at UIUC. I actually love making videos and video-editing. My three favorite videos in here are 'Yourself', "Replacing Sound Project" (please read the description on this one), and "The Life Cycle". 

High School AP Portfolio

This is my full AP Art Portfolio from High School. My Portfolio received a 5/5 on the AP Scale. AP Portfolio's are judged by and made up of two sections: Breadth and Concentration. 

Coding Projects

I have dabbled in coding due to my major in New Media at UIUC, but I am by no means advanced or an expert. Click above to interact with this one!
