After I played with rolling car parts in ink and then on paper, I was told to make hybrids of all of my favorite vintage things, most of which are furniture pieces. I began by cleaning my entire apartment to make it suitable for photographs. I then photographed each and every vintage item I owned and then did research on items I do not own to gather an image library. I presented my findings, as well as a very ridiculous list of my favorite things to my class. It was then suggested I marry each item together and create pieces using each item.

From here, I began sketching these vintage hybrids using items I own and love. It was suggested that I do this because my professor overheard me speaking to my friend about some vintage furniture.
I did about 50 of these, so this is a very condensed sample of the sketches I have done. I want to take this to a different place, either making these images larger and drawing them with much more detail, or maybe going very kitschy and cutting paper and making them look like scrapbook items. I have not yet decided.
