Art Class

After finishing my epic crayon art palooza I had a lot of left over materials.  I also found an additional picture of me in the midst of the shark creation. Check out that concentration - and the sweet craft sweatshirt. "Craft Sweatshirt" also functions as "Painting Sweatshirt", "Cat Sweatshirt", and "Nap Sweatshirt". It has holes and paint splatters and I love it.

You can faintly see the outline of the shark here:

And the final:

My mom and I found ourselves responsible for this little girl one day after school (Shannon) and I wish I had her cool-factor when I was her age.

She wanted to make a crayon painting for her and her sister so we got to work with all of the extra materials. Again, the worst part was peeling those stupid wrappers off of the crayons. Shannon was quick to pick up the process and was way faster at decision making than I will ever be.  I took over Eric's old job as the hot glue gun master and helped Shannon place her crayons while successfully burning the tips from my fingers.

After a brief lesson with the heat gun she got to work on the melting process. It's always nice to watch other people create things because it can give you some good ideas and perspective. I would have never thought to use the color combinations Shannon did, but I really really liked the way they turned out.
