Happy Halloween!!! The poster contest deadline for entries is also today & this here, is my entry. 8.5″ x 11″, water-based paint pens on canvas. I added the font digitally. I found a cool font, CM Chipped Paint, & modified it with rounded edges, custom holes through the digits, & created the numbers using the…
Okay, I posted it! That’s right! So this is what I’ve learned… don’t over-wrap your twine lamp!… it gets heavy! 2ndly, easy on the flame-retardant spray! Better yet, don’t use the spray & just use LED lights! Argh! All that time & energy, down the drain. I guess it counts for experience, right? Who else…
Hey you guuuys! I know I said I’d have an update on the twine pendant-lamp. And the update is… I’ve decided I should spray it down with this flame-retardant spray I found at the good ole’ neighborhood fabric store. I just gotta find a well ventilated place in which to hang the lamp. In the…
Okayyy, hurrayyy! Sooo, it’s time for another semiregular, biweekly, art-related update! I guess this is the hot new trend out there in diy land, the Twine-Ball Pendant Lamp! Just grab your corn starch, Elmer’s Glue, some flour, & some warm water, mix it in a big bowl, and run your twine through. I wrapped mine…
8.5 x 11, laminated menu for our deaf movie screenings. People will be able to just mark which items they want with a dry-erase pen. Originally, I wasn’t going to put much thought or time into designing these, but I kept going back and fixing things here & there. There are still little things here…
So I referenced a tiny pic I googled. I’m pretty sure the photo is a mash-up of two photos from Kevin Mazur/WireImage.com & Peter Still/Redferns/Getty Images. It’s really shiny & reflective after having put on the epoxy resin finish. I applied it, kinda imperfectly, so there are tiny bumps and bubbles, but I guess that…
Yyyesss! Check out my Texas Longhorn. No, I’m not a fan of the Texas Longhorns, I just like this cardboard, taxidermy… adornment! Thanks to cardboardsafari.com, you too can own something like this. I took it upon myself to paint a couple coats of gesso primer, on both sides. Spray paint a couple coats with “lime…
Four canvases… canvi… Oscar The Grouch, Big Bird, Elmo, & Cookie Monster of Sesamé Street. 18″x 60″x 1.5″, acrylic on canvas, epoxy resin sealed, super glossy action! Sold to family friends for their very big, very blank baby’s room walls. The waterproof, clear, glossy resin should help in that space, from getting damaged. So these…
Hey, finally a Snoop Dogg update. So I peeled off the rubber masking, revealing the greenness within! I know the surrounding looks black. It’s just the layers of color washed over. If I had this next to something that’s actually black, the difference is definite. 🙂 I also went in & painted green dots. Now,…
