Day 10 of 365

The spark....make something really, really small. so I cut out this paperboy. I did not have fine detail scissors so I use full size scissors. I places him on a newspaper at work. I cut the man out of that same brown paper that I made the ten-word story from. (see last blog)

Day 5 of 365 days of art

 Hello...so the spark today was  use something you collect in the piece. That would be hard...I am an artist...we collect everything. So at the paper tonight there was an ad with Ladybugs on the whole page. I cut some out and cut the wings. Then folding them made them look like they were flying. I thought...why not use aluminium cans. I watched people throw their cans away and started gathering them and washing them out. At home I have a large trash can (outside) lined that I toss them in every morning. When the can gets full I take them to be recycled.  So I cut up a can used a marker to make dots and tah dah...done...kinda on the crafty side but C'est la vie.

Day IV of the 365 day art

The spark...take a 5 minute walk, make something and leave it. Take a walk for 5 minutes...are you kidding me? Who has 5 minutes..okay...I do not have 5 minutes. But I did make something and I did leave it outside...Now in the 2nd photo you will see a poor little Hummingbird...It is way dead. Probably some big bird got a hold of it...or old age...poor little thing. The peanuts are from Wild Birds...It was fun and my boss totally did not get it.....score!
