The Time Machine

This project was in no way shape or form planned out, it was just something that happened in my spare time. I used some sort of neon/metallic markers and just did a bunch of designs and ended up being able to use it under the black light. It's called Time Machine and is currently being used for my fish tank background.

Surgeon General Warning

I have a dream, or a vision more really. I just want to make a whole bunch of these heads about issues or things in people's lives that affect them. This one I called Surgeon General Warning and it is supposed to show how cigarettes can become all people think about sometimes. 

I took a regular foam head as I used for the Media head and simply used gold acrylic paint to paint the bottom of the head so that it resembled a cigarette filter.

After that, I made the mask by cutting out Camel packs of cigs and gluing them to the mask, writing on the mask, painting the mask, and then gluing the mask on. 

The last to go on was the cigarettes and the feathers. The colors of the feathers are supposed to resemble ash or smoke as well as fire or the "cherry" at the end of a cigarette. 

Little Fun Projects

Duct Tape Flower

Alcohol + Colors = This

I drew both of these. Hoping to one day get one  as a tattoo.

The-dye is super fun and easy! You can buy kits at almost any craft store.

Just plain ole coloring. I keep empty canvases at my house because all my friends love to come over and doodle or do their own little crafts on them. Maybe I will do a post on all of those later. 

A Painting We Will Go

Media Head Cont.

The Mask tells all about media and the affects it has on us. The eyes are mirrors so that you can see yourself in the reflection and see those things the media has driven you towards. 

I cut out words from magazines and glues them to pipe cleaner for the hair to create the effect that it literally had media items everywhere. 

We all wear some sort "mask." This painting was to represent that. 

THINK

I saw something like this on the internet or something somewhere so I decided to try to do my own. I'm going to cut it out and put it on a red back ground I think.

The Pad

When we can't start a real fire, a virtual one does the trick.

'Tis the season! First tree ever.

Projects/In The Making

Above is what I like to call the "Media Head." I'll post a whole post about it later, but basically I am in the planning process of creating a head collection touching on social subjects. The one above is about how media affects us. The picture of the skull was a sketch I am doing to create a cutout to make another project with.

Things In Bottles

Below are a few of my newest creations. I have 30 bottles that I had nothing to do with so I thought, why not make use of them? I have started peeling off the labels and filling them with water. Once filled, I put in a high lighter (you'll see why once the project is finished), and then I picked up some of those growing toy things from the Dollar General. You know the ones? That when you put them in water they grow? Well, I guess we will see how well this one goes!

Same picture, I just did some different things to it. 

Where The Magic Happens

The Contemplation Station 

Otherwise known as the "office." The Contemplation Stations is where it's all at. We brainstorm here, work on projects here, and do all sorts of things. 

Mustaches are a MUST during the thought process. 

I leave the office for one minute and this is what I come back to?
