Porter Conklin: student, athlete, and creator. Many people look at me for the first things I have listed, while my artistic side remains hidden. For most of my life, honestly, I wasn't sure if I had an artistic side. This was until my sophomore year when I took design and digital art one. My mentality going into this was merely to fulfill a credit, but the outcome over my high school career shows to be so much more. The impact of this class will potentially follow me to St. Thomas next year, as it is an option for my region of study (Undecided). In the coming pages you will see how I have grown from being a photoshop noob, to a profitable artist throughout the pieces I have worked so very hard in. The overall goal of the website and project is to set myself up to create my future clothing brand and company: Contra. The idea of this continued to be explained throughout, as well as where the name itself comes from. Immerse yourself in this tour of artwork that consists of pieces from both this year in school, as well as ambitious side projects. Thank you for visiting and supporting my site and becoming the first piece to the growth of my potential future career.
