Mural Concept for Kitty Stone Elementary

Kitty Stone Elementary was looking to create a more "welcoming, inspiring, inviting, colorful and kid-friendly" atmosphere by incorporating a mural into their entry hall. Students in my pattern design class created three patterns each and were then instructed to share their patterns with classmates so students could create mural designs featuring patterns from the class.

Escape from Tox City

Escape from Tox City is an interactive commentary on toxic masculinity and bullying in online gaming inspired by my experiences as a female gamer in a stereotypically male realm.
