This project was to design something for an animal. I designed a wonderful climbing tower for Jonesie, my lazy cat. He'd probably sharpen his claws and maybe take a bat at a toy and then go lay down for a nap in one of his many favorite chairs. He sleeps about 22 out of 24 hours. 
Today's assignment was to open a drawer and use the contents to construct something. The drawer I chose has my water color supplies in it. I thought this sponge looked like a wooly mammoth, so adding a few sponge, paper. screen and broken crayons finished it. 
The assignment here was to draw for 30 minutes. I did a little drawing of dancers. Pencil drawings never show up well in photos, but I liked the assignment and the results. 
Another one of those goofy projects! Make shoes out of duct tape. I took the easy way out. The soles are some inserts that came out of socks I bought. Duct tape straps and there you have it! Modeling them gave me extra points. 
The good luck here was in the fun of making this little piece. A really simple process of glueing pretty patterns to little squares of lucite, and then adding a back. I like the colors in this one so you will probably see me wearing it. I have about 10 more patterns I would like to try, Christmas gifts, perhaps? 
This project was to take a closer look, indoors or outdoors, for inspiration. The first is a close-up of the ground in an indoor potted plant. I liked the curled dry leaves and texture of the soil. 
I bogged down on this one forever, overthinking what I could do with popcorn, popped or unpopped. Finally decided I needed to move on, so this is a mosaic use of popcorn kernals.
