My Adele Grammy piece is a labor-intensive exploration of texture, process, and digital innovation. The foundation of this work is a meticulously hand-crafted set of lace letters. Each letter is a unique creation, built layer by layer with vellum and ink pen. This painstaking process resulted in the poster that you see before you.

To expand the piece’s reach beyond its physical form, I meticulously scanned the lace letters and transformed them into digital vectors. This allowed me to experiment with different formats and mediums, ultimately resulting in a versatile design that could be applied to various products.
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row] Pushing the boundaries of creativity, I incorporated a range of techniques into this piece. Screen printing added depth and dimension, while gold leaf lent a touch of opulence. This experimental approach was essential in achieving the desired visual impact. The interplay of handmade elements and digital manipulation showcases my ability to seamlessly blend traditional and contemporary methods, creating a truly one-of-a-kind piece of art.

Very stern on listening to her lectures and others when they are talking. She was nice, helpful and very funny! Down to earth. Expects a lot but also understanding

University of Kentucky Professor Strickland was one of my favorite professors during my first semester. She gave really good feedback and you could tell she was really interested in everyone's artwork. She was very polite and caring. Just do as the assignments say and make an effort and you'll be okay!

I thoroughly enjoyed taking Graphic Design with her, and am continuing into the next course with her as well! If you communicate with her, she will work with you, and truly tries to get to know you and be involved in your work.

University of Kentucky Hayli Strickland is a patient professor who enjoys what she teaches. She shares her passion by teaching and helping students understand the art of photography. This course is a great course to take for your art credit especially if you are looking for something online. There is usually only 1 assignment per week! Effort is key to success in AS280.

University of Kentucky I absolutely loved being in her class! She gives amazing feedback on work and genuinely cares about her students and why they do the work they do! She is also very understanding of the different levels of capability in the class and I never felt left behind or bad. My works were not amazing because I had never done digital art before!
