My Choice - Environmental Photo

     This week was up to me as a photographer and my favorite assignment from this year was the environmental and mug shot assignment. So this is Elisa Maddison and she is a student at OSU studying HDFS (Human Development and Family Sciences) to pursue a career in helping adults with disabilities. 

When she isn't working on homework her hobby is art. She has been drawing for the past 10 years and has found her favorite medium includes recycling old records. To do this she will sand the record to be able to paint on it or if she is working on a collage then tape and glue suffices. Utilizing her drawing skills she also draws on her tablet to sketch out designs for tattoos, stickers and future record projects. 

Though she hasn't been able to currently she hopes to be able to sell her designs and stickers soon. Her main inspiration comes from her parents who are also very versed in the arts and crafts department.

The techniques she uses to capture photos like the one I'm including aren't exactly done with the camera itself, she has a way of integrating herself into the culture she's capturing.
