Pacific NW College of Art: My Admissions Portfolio

Digital Image: Ancestor
Here two images are used: a self-portrait of me taken a few years ago and a historical photograph taken by Edward S. Curtis of a Cheyenne Elder in the late 19th Century.

Digital Image: Ant View
A digital photo taken by me in a flowerbed looking towards the sky.

Digital Image: Astro
A self-portrait taken a couple of years ago. A self-portrait was a requirement of the portfolio.

Digital Image: Baby
Here is a digital image I captured of Jimmy on his first camping trip to Crescent Lake. Even as a baby he has an amazing ability to convey emotion through his eyes. Some of my best photographs are of him.

Digital Painting: Black & White Abstract
This image was created in Photoshop(c) and can be created in many different colors.

Digital Image: Flower
This digital photo was taken this last spring in my parent's backyard.

Digital Painting: Geometric
This digital painting is one of my favorites and was created in Photoshop(c). I love the green colors and different shapes and depth.

Graphic Design: Government
This came from an image I captured of a co-worker who's Seneca. He thought he was being funny by flipping me off. I changed the image to black and white, added the text and added the text to the envelop in his hands. I made this on a crappy CRT monitor and thought I had erased all the background. Haven't had time to fix it.

Digital Image: Grandfather Granddaughter
This image was captured by me at my brother's wedding a few years ago. It looks like a vintage image. PNCA admissions said it looked "timeless" when I had my portfolio review.

Digital Painting: Industrial Lighting
Another one of my favorite paintings. I like the color, balance and depth.

Graphic Design: Living In Balance
A digital self-portrait taken by me in late spring. I added a favorite Native quote.

Graphic Design: NAYA
I was asked to produce a new Housing to Homeownership flyer for NAYA a year ago.

Digital Image: Palace of Fine Arts
I love this image that I took last summer in San Francisco at the Palace of Fine Arts. If you are planning on visiting the city make sure you make a trip to this amazing location. About an hour before sunset is best.

Digital Image: Paprika
I took this close up image of my friend and I just love it. I reminds me of a crazy vintage image.

Digital Painting: Records
Just a cool image I made one day. I like the black and white contrast.

Digital Painting: Red Yellow Abstract
Digital painting using Photoshop (C)

Graphic Design: Small Pox Blankets
The first in my series of images called "The Mathematics of Genocide". Both are vintage images: one is of a Kootenai women taken in the late 19th Century by Edward S. Curtis and the other image photographer is unknown. It's difficult to look at, but illustrates a dark time in US history.

Digital Painting: Tipi Vision

Digital Image: Wedding
