Early June

Some art projects I have been working on since summer. These are things that make me feel dead tired and at the same time, so alive.

How's June for you? :)

Garland for Dad

 

As I've been extremely busy thinking - thinking being the operative word - about the things I need to do, I didn't think I'd be able to create something for Daddy last Sunday.

Good thing I had extra paper straws. With washi tapes, baker's twines, and scratch paper, I was able to whip up this garland for him, and Gomer, my 12-year-old brother even joined in the fun and created a greeting card using the same materials.

1) I traced the letters on used bond paper, decorated it with blue washi tapes to create some patters. 2) Made some tassles using gray and blue tapes. 3) Hung the stalks of leaves/grains I got from UP. 

VOILA!

 

Daddy was really happy when he saw this garland. I was, of course, happy too with the outcome that I even asked him if I could keep it in my room. He said yes ;p

HAPPY HAPPY FATHER'S DAY AGAIN, DADDY!! Love you :)

Drypoint and Eating

I find drypoint more challenging than rubbercut. It makes me 10 times hungrier! Good thing I was able to take out spaghetti and peanut butter sandwich from the Peanut Butter company before heading to the studio.

I was 1hour and 30minutes late. The first thing I noticed when I got there was the food served at every working station! We had grapes, chocolate, pseudo corn, and even wine! All those kept me going the whole afternoon. It was tiring but definitely fulfilling - I made 10 prints!

Now how will these look with some washi tape? Hmm...
