Creating your own Xmas cards is much easier than buying them in a store!
I designed this card for the newspaper to send to their various clients, hence the safe and secular "Season's Greetings" instead of "Merry Christmas" (don't get me started on that). They rejected it, so I used it as my own personal card that year.
The snowman was drawn in pencil, inked, then scanned and colored in Photoshop. The 3D text was created in Illustrator with the extrude & bevel filter, then imported into Photoshop where the highlights and icy textures were added.
Backgrounds and snow were created in Photoshop as well.

This was my submission, "Create..." to the 1st Annual Chain-link Fence Art Exhibition and Competition. Had a lot of fun with this, inspired by chain-link fencing of which I’ve never worked with before, tricky stuff ;) My arms got a work out.
MATERIALS: a 4 ft. x 4ft. scrap piece of chain-link fencing, a found barbeque grill (web), crystals, glass beads, found metal nuts/bolts/washers, metal wire and scrap telephone wire. I wanted people to discover the message in the spider’s web, “create” that would tie into the leading ant’s message of peace, happiness, laughter, love, opportunity, dreams, something(!). It’s good fun if we choose to create positive things for ourselves and the world :)

There was no easy way to get a snap without angular distortion or flash glare. So, i've used FD's toys (finally) to create this collage of all four views.
The painting is just a doodle, more pleasure taken in the application of the paint than anything else. On paperboard, an application of acrylic gesso (in varying thicknesses and textures). While the gesso was still rather damp, i finger painted with a heavy body acrylic (tinted with fluid acrylics) mixed with Golden's tar gel -- what a wonderful feel to that paint! Then fluid gold acrylic with the fluid medium was washed over different sections.

“But, if you have nothing at all to create, then perhaps you create yourself.” ~ Carl Jung
What an extraordinary journey into self-discovery, creativity and seeing things in an entirely new way this 365 project has been. It has changed my life, for the better, in so many profound and wonderful ways. Heartfelt gratitude to all of you who have supported me on this journey - I'd never have made it without you.
Happy 365! Happy New Year 2012!
HSS!

So, these are the letters I created by printing text on a sticky A4 and cutting out the letters using the Cuttlebug machine. I copy-pasted the (French) text from a French website and altered the fonts.
Eli is adoring his duplo at the moment. He's always liked it, but up til a few weeks ago, the only thing he'd do with it was build platforms - creating layers and layers on top of the base blocks. Suddenly the potential seems to have become clear to him and he'll spend ages (and both buckets of blocks) creating huge, multi level circus rings, chocolate factories, or houses, with people/animals/Buzz Lightyear dotted around and playing key parts in the game. A lot of the bricks (including these train ones) are from Nick's childhood.
We taught a special robot class for adults and teens at Tam Makers, to show them how to create their own artistic robot. This 2-part evening course took took place in our makerspace at Tam High School in Mill Valley.
Our four students learned how to build their bots from scratch, then make them move in a different ways, using a programmable Arduino board. Each student received their own robot kit, which they learned to assemble and control. They first built a chassis, then wired up the electronics, assembled a remote control, then added a head and arms, with servo motors to make them move.
They then took their completed robots home with them, after the class ended. Now that their bots are assembled and operational, we hope they will learn how to program them and make them move in different ways. We have invited them to join our weekly Maker Club workshops on Thursdays, so we can coach them on how to keep improving their bots.
For this course, my partner Edward Janne and I created our own robot kit, using an Arduino Feather M0 for the robot, an RF remote, a custom chassis, plus three additional servos and more parts. Our robot kit is similar to commercial products, but with a lot more features, at a lower cost. It was a lot of work, but we’re very happy with the final results, and our students seemed to really enjoy the class. We hope this will encourage other teachers, students and makers to create their own animated characters, for art and technology’s sake.

She mentioned that she forgot she had worn the sunglasses that day, but would quickly remember each time someone looked her way and smiled or laughed.
I also liked her t-shirt but didn't read it until later. I wish I had asked about it. It reads: there are only two kinds of ships... submarines and targets.

Role: Taira Shigemori
Play: Shigemori Kangen, Shigemori Remonstrates by Kawatake Mokuami
Artist: Kunichika (1835-1900)
Series: One Hundred Roles of Ichikawa Danjuro
'Shigemori Kangen (Shigemori Remonstrates)' was written by Kawatake Mokuami (at that time Shinshichi} and premiered by Danjuro IX in May 1876 at Nakamura-za. It is one of the Living History plays, therefore Danjuro wears a realistic beard. This became one of the most popular roles for Danjuro IX and was chosen for 'Shin Kabuki Juhachiban'

Danjuro Exhibition Talk V:
Yakusha-e:
Kabuki Actors' Prints
Talk and slide presentation by Carol Dorman,
Stuart Jackson Gallery
17th century Japan gave birth to many exciting new art forms, including Kabuki Theatre and a woodblock print art known as ukiyo-e. Kabuki's expressive acting styles and bold, colorful costumes and makeup provided wonderful subject matter for ukiyo-e prints. Between the end of the 17th century and the end of the 19th century many thousands of ukiyo-e prints illustrating a variety of subjects, including women, nature and heroic warriors, were produced, but almost half of all prints were "yakusha-e": portraits of kabuki actors or scenes from kabuki plays.
This talk will trace the development of actor prints from the end of the 17th century through to the wonderfully crafted, deluxe, bold and expressive portraits of Ichikawa Danjuro IX created at the end of the 19th century.

Fauxgo is a blog dedicated to documenting fake logos that have appeared in favorite Hollywood films.
Check out their compilation of fake brand logos and identities created for the film industry to use in movies. The effort is sort of an attempt by Hollywood to get away with using popular logos and brand-identities - that way they can still instill the "feeling" without having to pay the brand for royalties (or perhaps the brand wouldn't let them use the logo in the first place).
If it was in fact a true guerrilla marketing effort (by becoming so close to the original logo that it attracted press) it would probably be deemed a pretty wise idea. Nonetheless, these logos are still pretty neat and may serve as some creative inspiration for your next guerrilla marketing campaign.
Check out all fictitious logos at the Fauxgo.com website. Which are your favorites? Are there any made-up logos that were featured in movies that is missing?

My "Create-a-Monster" triclops, Ajna, finally got her make-over. I rooted her hair using "Sour Grapes", "Bobby Blue" and "Daiquari Ice" nylon hair from dollyhair.com. I got the inspiration from this wig: www.ebay.com/itm/1-3-8-9-Dal-Pullip-BJD-SD-LUTS-BLYTH-Dol... (which I bought for one of my Pullips, but I haven't found anyone to wear it yet)
PETE’S MOUNTAIN MAKES SWEET WINE
In the late 1850s Pete Weiss claimed a perfect plot of land overlooking the Willamette River Valley. The place came to be known as Pete’s Mountain—a tribute to his dedication and love for the land. In 2005, Mike Thayer came to us in search of a new logo for his recently acquired vineyard. We developed an identity and label design that captured the rustic quality of the mountain while conveying the quality and elegance of a high-end Oregon Pinot.

Special Recognition: Creating Art with my Hands
By Lucy W. Leonard
This project started August 2007, I had to over-come many obstacles to complete my Hawaiian quilt. I have scleroderma since 1987, it is a chronic connective tissue disease that hardens the skin, internal organs are affected. Still functional, I have all my fingers with hand disfigurement, affected daily with arthritis and vascular challenges.
Sometimes the only relief for a scleroderma patient’s hands is amputation, because it is painful! If diagnosed, one usually has Raynaud’s Phenomenon and if not controlled, it can be life threatening.
In 2000, I took up sewing thinking it will be therapeutic. Since then, I have taken a lot of art and sewing classes. I took Linda Visnaw’s Thread Sketches class (www.lindavisnaw.com) and adapted her Hawaiian Surprise designs, using my perspective, in my entry for the 2009 Veteran’s art festival competition.
Linda made sewing ergonomic suggestions like taping down a clean garbage bag to my work area. This allows fabric to move easily while performing free-motion embroidery and lessens hand fatigue. I used the four P’s: planning, prioritizing, problem-solving and pacing to accomplish this scheme
January 31, 2009, I applied Swaroski crystals all over it, flower by flower, step by step. It has taken a long time to finish, I have learned that the only limitation you have is within yourself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can't give you any advice but this: to go into yourself and see how deep the place is from which your life flows; at its source you will find the answer to the question whether you must create. Accept that answer, just as it is given to you, without trying to interpret it. Perhaps you will discover that you are called to be an artist. Then take the destiny upon yourself, and bear it, its burden and its greatness, without ever asking what reward might come from outside. For the creator must be a world for himself and must find everything in himself and in Nature, to whom his whole life is devoted.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters To A Young Poet ~
