So if anyone actually looks at my blog and reads this, you will know that I am one hundred percent happy right now. It all started when my friend texted me and told me she got a 4 on her AP art portfolio. Then, my two other friends that were in my AP art class both texted me and told me they got 4's as well. I was really excited for them, because that's way good. I'd only ever gotten 3's on AP tests (English and History) which is barely passing. So anyway, I expected to get mine any day after that... but every day I would check the mail, and my grades wouldn't be in there. It was quite frustrating. I finally decided that I couldn't wait anymore, so today I called the AP grading service thing, and had to pay $8 to hear my grades. But the second I heard the computerized woman say, "Five," it was all worth it. My happiness was so great that I pushed the button that made the woman repeat it five times. I'm still so excited about it, it's a dream come true... oh boy.

Executive Council 2008 - 2009
This was my last t-shirt design of my high school career, so I decided to include three of my favorite design elements - argyle, paint splatters, and dead trees.
Ultimate Chaos
This my favorite thing in the world - my yearbook cover. With a ton of help from my friend Adam, I designed this, and it ended up being the coolest thing ever. It tied for first place overall best yearbook at Herf Jones yearbook camp this year, and I like to think that the cover had a lot to do with it. Everyone I talked to loved it...
Tabula Rasa
I did this for the Tabula Rasa Literary Magazine at my school. But they never printed it for some reason... Oh well. It was still fun to design.
Nice Boulders...
Ross
Scratchboard
The coolest part is that I took the picture I drew this from! Well... maybe it's not that cool, but I like it more because of it.

Juniors
The juniors wanted me to do a t-shirt for them, so I did this but it's not quite what they wanted, so they had me do a new one. But I love argyle, so I like this one most.
The Adventure
This came about as we were searching for a theme for the school year. I really, really wanted this to be the theme so bad. But sadly, I was the only one...
Prom
Prom Poster. I'd post the tickets too, but someone might find them and print off hundreds and sell them and get rich... I thought about doing that, but decided against it.
Pole Vault
This shirt hasn't been made yet, but I can't wait until it has... I'm excited to see it on a shirt.
Eat... Sleep... Sing.
This is funny, because they wanted me to have three boxes of a kid eating, sleeping, and singing. But then either me or Adam (we argued about whose idea it was the other day, and we decided it was both because we couldn't settle on one or the other) had the idea of having a picture of someone doing all three at once. So I took a picture of Adam sleeping on the couch eating a bowl of cereal, and made it look as though he was singing. It worked out great!
Sweethearts
Sweethearts dance ticket. The poster wasn't as neat as the ticket, so I don't feel like putting that up...
Powder Puff
This design was for Powder Puff Football back during homecoming week. The girls loved the design... almost as much as they loved me.
Cross Country
I designed this for the cross country team, but for some reason they didn't like it so I made them a new one... Ever since then, my relationship with all cross country runners has been less than pleasant... much less.
