Challenge #8 - Sell Yourself

I have an idea for a tattoo that has been rumbling in my brain. So a T-shirt with this.
Probably would get me booted but still...it wants to come to life, so...

Materials: T-shirt, paint Update: The T-shirt thing won't work. Four inches of snow outside...can't spray there. Don't want to be trapped indoors with that smell, so BADGES/PATCHES. Images painted on 100% cotton that contain provocative images which can be sewn to clothing, glued onto notebooks, etc. Versitile Art.

Challenge #6 Street Art



I don't have a 40' wall to play on, so I have created a pocket graffiti template. Ha! I did the mock-up on Styrofoam (left over from lunch, cut it with an Exacto, and sprayed a sample only to find out that spray paint eats Styrofoam! The sample was merely a model; I had planned to recut it in a sheet of copper (more durable), but wow! didn't know about eatability.

Maybe that's a way to destroy all of the Styrofoam clogging up landfills.
The image I decided on is an eye surrounded by a happy/sad, comedy/tragedy mouth. If you come upon it in the street you can see you have a choice-positive or negative, or it can be read simply as an eye. LOOK!

Materials: Styrofoam, spray paint + any surface, anywhere
