A Day Late... or two

So here is a crappy Photobooth picture of the mask I made. Once I find where I lost my camera cord, I will upload a real picture. I also have yet to upload my pictures from my trip to Virginia.
Anyway, the mask was a plastic one which I covered in Mod Podge and zebra print tissue paper. Then I added some black feathers and sticky rhinestones around the one eye. Unfortunately I spent Halloween working, and didn't get to actually dress up.
How was the rest of your Halloweens?

November Challenge!

I know we haven't got October's responses posted yet (I myself still need to scan mine in) but I figured I'd hurry up and get November's Challenge posted. So here is your assignment: Combine the organic and the mechanical in a piece. Cyborgs, post apocalyptic wasteland, whatever you want. Have fun!

Finished Mushroom Challenge!

I've finished my mushroom challenge, a week late, but finished! (Deleting the work in progress post, mostly to save room on my Flickr account.)



Like I said, it's based on mushroom gill patterns. The chasing on this is done, but I think that when I incorporate it into a piece, I may make a few others and then turn them into a necklace. (In that case, it will be oriented sideways.) Otherwise, I'll just make it into a pendant.

October Challenge

The challenge for this month is Masks! I want you guys to have fun with it, by doing something different and making a mask. Well, different for Shanna and I, Casey makes stuff all the time. So go get some glitter and feathers and have lots of fun. You must upload a picture of yourself wearing said mask by Halloween.

Mushroom Challenge

Here is my submission. I created a pattern using all the names of the mushrooms in the article, and different fonts that I thought worked with the name and origin of the mushroom.
Not sure what else to write about it...

Another find!

Here's a really amazing piece of work. It's an animation/illustration/performance, which means you really just need to watch it.

Arting

So, here's the two pieces I've been working on lately. The blackbird piece has been worked on for longer, and done with watercolor and watercolor pencils.Also, I did this quick-in-drawing-long-in-painting illustration based on the song "The dirtiest queen." by Lovedrug.

Crit me!
