    Who Runs The World?

    by
    Money. Money runs the world. BUT so girls, specifically women, specifically Beyonce. For this assignment, to mess around with money, I decided to replace the white man currently on the bill with someone more relevant, more prophetic…Beyoncé!

    GLITCH ART

    by
    For this visual assignment, I did Glitch Art (three stars). I’ve had some minor previous experience with this genre of digital art, so I partially chose this assignment because I already knew what my method for glitching up my photos would be. I also decided I would take photos from my past that captured memories […]
