This series of illustrations was inspired by a photo I took of a windmill in Ios, Greece. I challenged myself to create three illustrations of the windmill that depict it in different dimensions. The first dimension is Earth, the second is a sunny desert, and the third, contrasting the second, is a more colorful, cartoonish depiction of the moon, complete with colorful surrounding stars. These illustrations were created entirely in Adobe Illustrator.

The purpose of this flyer is to serve as an infographic about manatees. I decided to include some fun facts along with more serious information to raise awareness about how these marvelous animals are categorized as endangered. Hopefully, the more awareness this issue gains, the less likely it will be for manatees to face extinction. This flyer was created entirely in Adobe Illustrator.

When creating these collages, I considered the impact of our daily decisions on the environment. In the first collage, I focused on the excessive use of plastic in packaging everyday products like fruits and sodas, which often end up in the ocean, harming aquatic life. Despite efforts to reduce plastic waste, such as switching from plastic straws to compostable alternatives, much more can be done. The widespread use of plastic containers for fruits, for instance, still seems wasteful. This collage was also inspired by the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, an accumulation of discarded plastic in the ocean. For the second collage, I was inspired by the instability of the weather. Last year, New York saw barely any snow, while Texas experienced unusual snowfall in early 2021. Climate change, characterized by major shifts in temperature and weather patterns, is a likely cause. While some changes may be natural, the burning of fossil fuels significantly contributes to the Greenhouse Effect. This highlights the importance of pursuing renewable energy sources. These collages were created in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.

These illustrated icons of the pink skater girl and green skater boy were inspired by the original Xbox 360 profile picture named "Emo Hat Boy." I have always liked the aesthetic and era of 2000s digital designs, including this profile picture. However, I always wanted different color versions of it, so I decided to create them myself. These icons were created in Ibis Paint.

I thought of the idea to make a pie chart for donuts while working at a donut shop. I was curious to see what types of donuts college students would prefer, so I put together a survey with the help of Google Forms and asked some of my classmates to fill it out. Once I collected enough data, I input it into the Adobe Illustrator pie chart tool. I envisioned the pie chart to be shaped like a donut, so I utilized Illustrator's design tools to design each section as a specific donut flavor.

Who doesn't love pizza? Whenever you think about pizza, you think about Fridays, good vibes, and parties! Pizza is associated with positivity. That is why I wanted to create an icon representing this iconic food. My intention was to create a minimalist pizza icon with a vibrant background to complement it.

I was inspired to create an illustrated environment of the WTC in downtown Manhattan because I became interested in it at a young age when my uncle told me about its rebuilding. I remember seeing the concept art and plans for the complex and then watching its actual construction. I have always been fascinated by the building's design. In this illustrated environment, I started with a basic black outline and then filled the shapes with two-tone colors to achieve a gradient effect, which I felt made the illustration stand out. The first illustration was created entirely in Adobe Illustrator, but the following four were enhanced in Ibis Paint. In Ibis Paint, I created a thicker black outline for the illustrations and added background color. I also experimented with different brushes and lighting effects that Ibis Paint offers, such as the bubble and kaleidoscope brushes.
