KUDZU

I finally got around to finishing this roll of film. It took me about a year. I wanted to attempt double exposures that made places around Knoxville look like they were overtaken by the Kudzu. It just might be my favorite invasive... followed closely by honeysuckle. The base of the roll is kudzu from South Knoxville, and some more landmarks from across the river are on the second exposure. Here are some of the best attempts.

EVOLUTION OF AN IDEA

The NPR radio station here in town has a contest to design the mug image for the $75 dollar pledge giveaway. Mug designs should relate to public radio and East Tennessee. Here are two sketches and the final image that I created. We'll see how it all turns out.

Bic pen doodle with a little bit of a to-do list.

Sketched out with markers. The East Tennessee Landscape appears in the background.

Final image is watercolor, marker, and cut paper.

Blacks enhanced, UT logo color corrected to official UT orange, and caption dropped in.
