A photo of a beautiful woman that is illuminated by an intense colored outdoor light. The most intriguing aspect of this image are her eyes. They seem to be different colors (and different levels of brightness) because of the way the light source illuminates her face. The contrasts are so stark because there is a large LED colored light source that was used for this image. The LED light source was from a permanent structure like an outdoor art installation (the type that was used in this image). This image was taken during the fall of 2022. The woman is blue, one of her eyes is grey and one appears to be blue. Her hair is brown. There are red and green lights in the background on the left on the wall.

To the right and below are some of Kelson's major projects that were completed in his graphic design course during the fall of 2024. The graphics below include a Monaco inspired F1 poster, a London infographics page, and a 365 London issue magazine that spans three pages, including two full magazine spreads. Two additional graphics include a purple and orange guitar, albeit not major projects, Kelson thought these graphics were fun to design and should be included on this page of his site to show his knowledge and skills within the Adobe Suite.
