Day #31

Wow I can't believe it's already been a whole month of making something creative! 31 down 334 to go!

Day #31 Is making a path or a map. I made a fairly exaggerated map of my walk to work. This map makes it look a lot more crazy than it really is. My walk is actually simple it just takes forever to get there.

Day #30

Day #30 I had to work with toys. Recently I bought on of this kits that you can color or paint or decorate a plain white figure. This one was a christmas one so it had a guy with a hat and a guy with a present as a head. I picked the one with the gift head. Instead of making it a present I made it a package as in a cardboard box and a the body part I made a mail carrier. It came out really cool.

Day #29

Day #29 is making something disguised. This one I slacked on and did something super easy. It's kinda cheesy, but is it a cyclops disguised as a dog or a dog disguised as a cyclops? I'm going to go with the cyclops in a dog disguise, because why would a dog have to hide?

Day #28

Day #28 is using a traditional school supply and making something non-traditional. Using paper glued to a solid surface is one of my favorite things to use, of course I used plain old, blue lined, notebook paper. I glued it to a oval wooden plaque. Then, around the edges I glued my new obsession, sequins and rhinestones. I've all ways like those little sparkly gem, but recently I can not stop buying them! And I glued everything with regular elmer's school glue. Can't mess up the classics.

Day #27

Day #27 inspiration is a recent dream. I just started watching the show Face Off. Its about a sfx makeup artists competition. The first episode was recreating the Wizard of OZ lion, scarecrow, tin man, and wicked witch.
Last night I had a scary dream that i was being haunted by the creepy witch that one of the teams created. It was a scary, withered, old witch. My picture doesn't not do justice to what I dreamed, it was way scarier...

Day #26

Day #26 is making something portable or seem portable. Since almost everything is portable these days I figured drawing something would be best. This is a picture of a guy with a portable computer, television, phone, and stereo. My favorite part are the cords trailing behind.


Day #25

Day #25 is working with nature. For the next three days I chose to make a drawing. Todays I had to work with objects from outside. Like from your backyard or a park. I don't have much of a backyard being in an apartment, but there is a big pond right behind us.
When I was walking the dogs today I thought I heard someone talking on the backside of the building. When I got back there I saw that it was a goose that wasn't very happy. He was stuck in the pond, in a spot that was melted. The pond has been mostly frozen for the last week or so. I felt bad for the poor thing when it tried jumping out but the use kept melting. Thankfully it made its way out by its self.
Picture of the goose.
