Day 34 - 2/3/11

work with wire today.

thin gauged wire

thought this was cool. I would love this to be a broach but don't know how to turn into one or get the backing to attach. if your interested let me know.

Day 33 - 2/2/11

use pens as your material/ inspiration today.

blue and black ink from a pen
bristol paper (smooth side)

so I love this. I just wanted to do something different from everyday pen use and how i was taught to use it in art. i hope you like what i came up with

Day 32 - 2/1/11

make something ephemeral

sugar
food coloring
dish soap
air

basically my whole thought process was not how creative,figure i got photo editing for that, but how massive can i get it.

Day 31 - 1/31/11

make a path for people to follow

so basically i live in a condominium complex and so i made a path in the snow for the dogs and thier owners to get from the street to the garbage

Day 30 - 1/30/11

work with toys


stuffed animals

so apparently  my mother thinks its still ok to give her grown son stuff animal, why i dont know but if want any let me know.

Day 29 - 1/29/11

make a disguise

paper plate
glasses

messy hair
my mother

basically i made this to show my mother what she would look like when she get old, I just didnt tell her that, so basically just wanted a good laugh

Day 28 - 1/28/11

Use traditional school materials to make something nontraditional.

lined paper

I made a wallet!!!!! i been wanting one so i made one, not to use unfortunately but i can pretend

Day 27 - 1/27/11

use a recent dream as inspiration for what you should do today

canvas
acrylic paint


so i don't remember my dream but i do did remember some object and so i used it as my jumping of point on my painting aslo the photo doesn't do it justice

Day 26 - 1/26/11

make something portable that normally isn't

printer

so how amazing would it be to have the option to bring a printer where ever you go, I think pretty freaking brilliant!!!

Day 25 - 1/25/11

work with nature

snow


this is just bad timing because we are buried in snow so I decided to create a snow monster. basically the snow monster is a cloud monster that comes down in little pieces and reforms to eat the whole living population in its area, this why plants "die" for the winter so they don't get eaten, we humans do pretty good job kicking its butt but you never know when he/she will attack.

Day 24 - 1/24/11

work only with green - colored material today

paper clips

so after the food project thing earlier this year i have been forbidden to do it again by my mother. so the only thing i had were paper clips so this project is alright.

Day 23 - 1/23/11

Waste not dig in a recycling bin for all of today

Day 22 - 1/22/11

Create a bridge. connect two things in a creative way.

spaghetti

so this projected reminded me of when i was in elementary or middle school and I had to construct this spaghetti bridge. well I just remember how pathetic mine was and that it was actually kinda strong to, like the little bridge that could. so this project was a brief homage to my childhood memory that i completely forgot about, lol

quick glimps

so here are the projects that i been doing, hopefully Thursday or this weekend I can post the description and thoughts and photo edits for all you folk

swamped

i been doing the projects but havent had time to edit them and choose and all that jazz. just swamped with to much and a lack of sleep

about that...

sorry I haven't posted in the last few days, but life is been really stressful with the whole new semester and all these other things screwing me over so i been doing the projects but haven't had time to post and edit and blah blah blah... so forgive and forget and chances are this won't be the last but this apology will be, lol!

Thanks!

Day 21 - 1/21/11

Write a ten-word love story


so I thought I  was going to have difficulty with this and and after doing seven of these I chose to go with number two. so to help seperate my comments and the story as well as help set the mood I hope you enjoy this lovely picture of me : )

                                        A look... a smile... a moment... a connection of souls

Day 20 - 1/20/11

Buy or make some clay and then use it like you never have before.

4 cups of flour
1 cup of salt
less then 2 cups of water
red and blue food dye

so the thing that came to mind was not appropriate to post on a blog so i was thinking....and thinking..... and thinking.... and nothing. so then i thought its not what i can do to the clay but what the clay can do for me. so I used the clay as a way for me to bring my mother into my world and this project and just do a little bonding. me and mother rarely get to be at the same place at the same time where we can talk and catch up on stuff. so this was very nice and we both had a blast doing it to. also after i was done with the clay and dye my hands looked like a killed a smurf in cold blood by squeezing it and the head popped off.

Day 19 - 1/19/11

Create something that floats on water

paper
dogie bag

so basically the physical object is really not that creative but the notion behind it is. you remember ever seeing the TV or movies the person is stuck on an island but they magically have a bottle, paper and pen with them and hey write a note stick in a bottle and toss it out to see as an attempt of being rescued. Well, based on that i came up with the idea flush message. being able to flush a note down the toilet and people can get a message. I believe this is the new way communication is going, even eventually making cell phones a thing of the past. Am I brilliant or what!!! lol

Day 18 - 1/18/11

worth with the things you find in your car

amp energy drink
mavericks
strabucks coffee cup
fishing line
tape

So lets be real here for a second and review the facts, I am 22 yrs old, I go to college, i drive everywhere. what do you think your going to find in my car!!!....GARBAGE! so like many typical people my age I am going to have coffee cups and energy drinks cause lets face it we don't get much sleep in this time. sleep is for losers!..lol! so any way I figure i create something that could hang off my rear view mirror and so when I made this I was kinda disappointed because it was too big to but w/e!

Day 17 - 1/17/11

Make something inspired by and/or that goes over an eye.
acrylic paint
nerf darts
ribbon

so I will admit not one of the prettiest but I think it is cool. thus far this has been my favorite project to make because I got to play with FIRE!!!! basically took a lighter and try to melt the two darts together best i could.

Day 16 - 1/16/11

Make a unique print by cutting up a potatoes or sponge , and use it to stamp on a material of your choice

sponge
acrylic paint
Bristol paper

I hate working with stamps, I like to have clean lines with my work and stamping, for me, does not allow for that. So  as I was stamping  I started to cringe at the sight of it. When I was done I decided the best thing to do was to work with it, so i was inspired by mosaics. use the other paint and some layering  of the paint to mimic that that feeling of it. I think I accomplished that pretty well.

Day 15 - 1/15/11

What can you do with a dollar? use a dollar bill s your medium or inspiration today.

5 dollar bill

So I cheated and used a five dollar bill today. well aparently at thr time my friend only had that and frankly I'm flat broke right now so I used that. also I had a really long and and it was 11:00 pm when I realized I still needed to still do today project so as I am having this in depth convo about everything I am trying to figure out what the hell am I going to do with this! so I cam up with what i did. you  might not say its much but hey! whos the artist! lol

also sorry about the late post it just been crazy over here so I am trying to post as soon as possible.

thoughts on this so far...

I am realizing after two weeks of this that I truly enjoy building things like sculpting and what not rather then doing drawing. I wonder what what route this going to take me with the 30 or so weeks left? also I would like to thank all of you for your support in this so far, it means a lot.

also if any one  is intrested in purchasing any of these prints please follow the below link. 

Day 14 - 1/14/11

make something microscopic

paper
thumb tack
patience

so thankfully I have had to do things on the small side before via 3d models for set design. the smallest I ever did 1/8" scale and that was challenging. so with this i took the laid back approach and the challenge to go even smaller i think i accomplished that today. I really do like this one a lot.

Day 13 - 1/13/11

Use tea Leaves or tea bags or even just liquid tea to create something

tea
flour
corn starch
water

so yes people i already know what it looks funny and I think its funny that happen, in person it looks more like stone because you can see the grain texture and different colors.

 

Day 12 - 1/12/11

Camouflage. Create or alter something so that ut disappears into its background.
paper
color pencils

so I love the pattern and the color scheme rminds me of a peacock. also show the camo of negative and postive spaces. the first is positive the second is just the pattern and the third is the negative
