Leaf book

 O.K. this is one of the wierdest ones.... make a book out of something that would not normally be pages of a book. The next project was to make something of your lunch. I combined the two and made a lettuce leaf book/cream cheese and veggie sandwich.

Sunset

 Look at the sky after the sun goes down today and make something inspirational. This is a photo of the sky looking north. This was not a spectacular show of color as sunsets go, but I like the impressionistic pastels.

Flag

 Make a flag for a new country or other flag creation. It's almost football season again and there is much hype about the SEC, so here is my version of a flag for the home team. Go Team!

Monster

 Create a scary monster that has never existed before. I thought a three eyed creature with a foot for one hand an horns would be pretty scary. Obviously, I'm not going to win any awards for sci fi fictional creatures. I do have a little more admiration for the creativity of those who do!

Shadows and hands


Shadows and puppets was the assignment. This is really performance art, so doesn't illustrate well in a photo. When we were kids we used to entertain ourselves at bedtime with shadow puppets on the wall. The third photo was the result of a new night light. When I came out of the bedroom there was a monstery looking shadow on the ceiling created by the back of the chair.

Family Crest

 The assignment was to make a family crest for your own family. We do not have a family crest, at least that I know of so here it is. I used things that are important to our family, like education, music, creativity and family as symbols. Our immediate family all went to MU so that is included. The computer component didn't come across real well but you get the drift.

Sugar, sugar

 Be sweet! Use sugar as your medium or inspiration today...  So I played with the sugar. Sort of looks like the sand dunes. Don't see much future in sugar art, so I put it back in the container.
