Let’s Make it Better

by Janeil_H | Jan 7, 2011 | 2011, Art

This was something I was doodling on my tablet this evening. I’ve just felt isolated a bit and though I have people to talk to here at ETSU, it doesn’t feel real deep and I don’t think I feel like I fit in to do something more. My mind kind of wandered to doing something impactful with a girlfriend figure by my side; I usually draw my OC Jennifer in that role, but I guess the Sheena character from Tales of Symphonia was in my head at the time. Not sure how to find that at college, but it doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen from hanging out in a Christian outreach group, that’s for sure.

ETSU – Raster 1 Final

by Janeil_H | Dec 19, 2010 | 2010, Art, ETSU

Well, that took forever.

This is my final composition piece for my Digital Media class this semester. I picked a G-17 in the heat of a skirmish kicking the Aeon out of a system. It’s one of the first times I’ve shown the “good guys” getting a pounding. It’s also one of the first art pieces that I’ve done that I’ve felt somewhat emotional about.

Title pretty much speaks because of the picture in the corner on the dashboard. More or less it sums up how I’ve felt at school if that picture wasn’t there; doing what you had to do and that it might benefit somebody else, but you’re by yourself in the end…

I took a lot of heavy inspiration from the modern F-22 cockpit for this, including avionics and the glass-panel look that the fighter had. Apparently my teacher was not a fan of this, preferring something more old, rugged and practical. I don’t blame him, that’s just not the IGA aesthetic of things.

Definitely sunk a number of hours on this. My tablet was still being nonsensical at the time, despite only having it a year up to now. Let’s hope I get it actually working to do what I want as time goes on, otherwise it’s just a paperweight.

ETSU Chalk Graffiti

by Janeil_H | Nov 22, 2010 | 2010, ETSU, Photos

I always pass something of this sort when going through ETSU, but this is the first time I saw it in an open space that wasn’t a classroom building. Sounds like there was a fun party going on, not much to say otherwise.

ETSU – Carrot in the Library

by Janeil_H | Nov 8, 2010 | 2010, ETSU, Photos

When I was hanging out with my friend at Sherrod library, we found this random carrot half-stuck in the trash can on the way out. And this wasn’t a small carrot either; this was like a 1-foot kind in the big bags in the produce section.

Both of us were definitely baffled, and she couldn’t figure out why someone had a carrot in there in the first place. Third floor I believe.

Janeil! Do not say yes! I will HIT you!

OMG ITS MREE Meets Java

by Janeil_H | Oct 10, 2010 | 2010, Other

Something I did at the expense of a friend. They were always being random and silly, and I decided to show them what their silliness does when plugged into a Java program. This was the result of that; the values are supposed to be only taken by numbers, but crashes when her “OMG ITS MREE” is typed in instead.

Sorry, you’re not getting your test scores, it looks like.

Also, the background of the command prompt window is white because the teacher wants paper printouts of your work. I’m not a neat weirdo or anything like that.

ETSU – Traffic Cone on Campus Lamp

by Janeil_H | Sep 13, 2010 | 2010, Camera Roll, ETSU

I’ve always heard people talk about pranks and nonsense that people pull off from being at ETSU. I’ve never seen any of these pranks occur or their aftermaths. Just the tales from students a few years later.

This wasn’t the case.

On this particular morning while going to class, I spied this out-of-place traffic cone on top of a lamp near Lamb Hall. I have no idea how that got there, but that’s…creatively placed.

On the Road – Nashville Trip – 2010

by Janeil_H | Sep 5, 2010 | 2010, Photos

Ended up in Nashville this weekend due to some family coming to see the sights. I’ll get you a detailed log sometime of what I saw and whatnot. I will say I saw a few interesting things, strangely. All of them are flip phone quality, but better some than none, right?

ETSU – Goldfish Murder Scene

by Janeil_H | Aug 29, 2010 | 2010, Photos

When my cousin and I were heading back to his dorm in Governor’s Hall, we were going up the stairwell and ran into this scene. Medhavin effectively dubbed it as a “Goldfish murder scene”, as it looked like someone took a bunch of the Goldfish crackers and smashed them into the floor.

Whoever you Goldfish are, rest in peace.

The XD Monster

by Janeil_H | Aug 22, 2010 | 2010, Art

More Skype doodles when talking to my sister. This conversation revolved around her being annoyed how something very abstract could be counted as art. I jokingly told her I could make an abstract art about monsters going “XD”. This was the final result.
