A Shade of Gold

For this show, I decided to create three works of art.  In these pieces, I wanted to display the beauty of the three women.  The skin tones of the women are based on my perception of their aura.  Each individual in the illustrations has their own radiance of beauty.  Like in society's value of beauty, viewers will value one work over the other.  Each illustration is sensual, elegant and powerful in nature.

Tricycle

These political posters are used to display the effects of gun laws on children.  I didn't want to show anything too gruesome, but to add a shock value to the work.  By using commonly known toys and multilating them, it gives these pieces the strength needed.  While giving the toys a persona, parents could picture their children in these situations.  In detail, by showing bullet wounds in the Teddy Bear or Doll, I hoped to receive empathy from the audience.

William Williams will be graduating with a Bachelor of Arts with a Graphic Design concentration.
