Xanadu Void Collection

The final assignment in my Pattern Design class was to create a 'culture collection.' We were asked to create a pattern inspired by a film, tv series, novel, album, etc. I chose the 80s' movie Xanadu for my inspiration. The movie is a fun fusion of roller disco and Greek mythology set in the 1980s. I had so much fun creating patterns inspired by it that I created 3 collections of patterns instead of just 3 patterns. This collection was inspired by the neon lights and patterns found in the movie Xanadu. Pattern Design | Spring 2020 | Jamie Runnells [...]

Daruma Doll Pattern

Daruma dolls are traditional Japanese dolls that symbolize perseverance and good luck. The dolls come with blank eyes that you fill in. You draw in one eye when you make a wish or set a goal, and then fill in the other eye once that wish or goal has come true. I first encountered Daruma dolls when I visited Japan in 2015 and loved their quirky appearance so working on this project was really fun. I drew this little guy in Adobe Illustrator and created several color variations for a fun and fresh contemporary look. Pattern Design | Spring 2020 [...]

47th Annual Juried Student Show

Happy to announce my tintype 'Enola' was accepted into JSU's 47th Annual Juried Student Show. This tintype and case were all made by me. The image is a dry plate tintype of my grandmother created using a digital negative. The case and matt were laser cut and engraved and assembled by hand. This piece and the others in the series took a ridiculous amount of time and work so I'm excited for the opportunity to show it off. 47th Annual Juried Student Show Jacksonville State University | Department of Art Hammond Gallery | March 10th - 31st, 2020 Opening Reception: [...]
