About Me

My photo
Finished my bachelors degree in Art Practices August of 2012 and a masters degree in Educational Leadership and Policy with a specialization in Post Secondary Adult and Continuing Education in 2014. Professionally I'm interested in creating culturally responsive curriculum for Native American/Alaska Native youth and adults in formal and non-formal learning environments. I love the intersection of art, learning/teaching, and Indigenous cultures and ways of knowing. In my creative process I'm interested in using iconic Native American images or objects in different ways to illustrate political or historical themes, truths (as I see them), and experiences. I also love to use different art mediums to capture the people and world around me. I enjoy making art with friends and giving away art is a way for me to show my love and gratitude to others.

The Many Changes of an Image


This post is meant to show an example of manipulations and changes that can be made to an image. These are just a few of the many, many
simple manipulations available.



Above is the original image I took of Mom's Garden House. This came straight from the camera with no manipulations except making the file smaller to make uploading the image to this site easier.

Next I simply desaturated (took out the color) the image.

Then I used the "despeckle" filter which makes an interesting distortion.

Here is the "despeckle" feature with image color.

I desaturated the image again and altered the color value levels.


Here I changed the color from the green tones above to reds and oranges by using the Hue-Saturation.


I LOVE IMAGE MANIPULATION!!
It's like opening a present, I never know what the picture is going to turn out like.
