Original Inspiration:
In Process:
I started by painting a small flower on the jacket sleeve to test how the acrylic paint would work on the denim.
This is how I finished off the jacket. I think this will be a great jacket for someone because I thrifted thick, durable denim to paint on.
For this jacket I painted the whole background white first so that I could put yellow and it would show up.
I decided to make this jacket beachy because Saint Augustine has great beaches and a lot of residents visit the beach often.
I started these jeans by painting one side black to make the white pop.
After doing a white outline, I chose to do some shading strokes to make the bones look more 3D. I wanted to make these pants gender neutral to be more inclusive.

Reflection Statement:
I got clothes from the thrift store such as jeans and jean jackets and painted on them so that they are a bit more personalized. There are a lot of homeless youth in the Saint Augustine area who have been put out for reasons such as mental health or family issues beyond their control. I wanted to make something that was made with the intention that they have something handmade by someone else for them. If I were to do this again, I would go to Jacksonville to get more Jean jackets and I would just paint those and not jeans too.
