Artist Statement:
Hello my name is Derek Loewe. I created this as a portfolio of my skill to show what I am able to do to touch up and manipulate photographs.  The various galleries show the different work that I have done over the years. Whether it be in Illustrator, After Effects, Maya, and everything in between.   In doing this I am able to show potential employers and future colleges that I have the skills to work on various projects and not just be a graphic designer or 3D Animator.   To work in the graphic design field and multimedia area you need to show that you can work in Photoshop to edit and manipulate photos in such a way to work with the design you are looking to achieve; wither it be a website design, 3d textures, or images for products to be placed on the website store.   I would be able to contribute to a design team by showing what I can do with working with colors.  As well as not just seeing a simple photograph or design but to see beyond and imagine what it could be and make that design happen.
