Night in NYC
Fall 2025
Sublime Text, HTML, CSS, GitHub Pages
This project is a choose-your-own-adventure story based on the experience of being out late in New York City. I was inspired by how small decisions can completely change how a night turns out. The most challenging part was connecting multiple pages together using links and making sure everything worked smoothly. I solved this by organizing my files clearly and testing each link as I built the site.

Eye Portrait
Fall 2025
Adobe Photoshop
I was inspired to mix an eye with a cracked texture because I liked the idea of blending something human with something worn and broken. The contrast between the smooth eye and the rough cracks made the image feel more dramatic and symbolic. I also wanted to experiment with texture and layering without making the project too complicated. But Overall, the piece let me play with emotion and abstraction in a simple but effective way.

Title: Moon Monkey
Fall 2025
Adobe Photoshop
I found an image of a yawning monkey that looked like it was yelling. I wasn’t sure what to do with it, but then I found an image of the moon and decided to layer the two images create a howling moon monkey. I then made a pattern of two satellites and a photo of the earth taken from the moon.

My composition consists of a sunset background overlaid with an image of two birds fighting in the sky and a group of fishermen.
This creates a warm impression of the defeated bird falling virtually into the sea and almost close to the fishermen.
This is a composite of a cheetah on the track. Looks like he’s getting ready to join the race, or something like that. Thought the layer of color would add to the mood….

Here’s my composite image for today. I combined the inside of one of Brooklyn’s infamous Coffee Shops, Devoción Coffe, and added one of my favorite protagonist, Gojo, from a series called “Jujutsu Kaisen” aswell.
The inspiration for my abstract work comes from the modern era of advanced technology, where the presence of robots is gradually emerging on the Internet. In this piece, I applied gradient color fills, the rectangle tool, the ellipse tool, background color fills, shape overlays, duplicated shapes, rounded rectangle corners, and a variety of color palettes to complete the composition.
The creative process of this artwork was full of challenges, and I encountered many difficulties. For instance, when facing a blank document, I often felt uncertain about what theme I wanted to pursue. I also struggled with color matching, shape coordination, and the use of various tools. I am not very skilled in digital art and rarely use Photoshop, but the challenges of this project allowed me to gain many interesting and valuable experiences.
