The behavioral setting is eco-friendly with a green roof and is enjoyable for all ages. This handicap-accessible home focuses on the views of the lake behind it. Natural light is accessible in every room so that there is minimal di-rect sunlight exposure. The large porch is partially covered and surrounded by the home’s windows for an open feel. Entertaining is made easy as the different wings of the house are separated into private and public sections.

The view of the lake is able to be seen as soon as you walk into the house. The glass wall opposite of the enterance is accessible to the patio and provides a lakefront view immidiately. Each bedroom has its own full bathroom as well as great views of the land. Large columns in the front and back give a great architectural look and provide extra shade to the exposed windows.

Roman Garden Design 2010My Roman Garden design is a symmetrical plot that focuses on the main structure in the center. The water flows from the center into the four adjacent bodies of water. The statues of greek maids also supply water flow. The feminine environment is guarded from the outside world by ten foot high rectangular bushes.

Chaple Drawing 2010The Drawing of the chapel located on the College Station campus captured the lighting of the building during the afternoon. Without using color on the entire sheet, I was able to capture the overall feel of the environment.

I have learned to capture people and their emotions through differ-ent methods of drawing.
