Marilyn

A painting done of Marilyn Monroe… using a cross-hatching technique…

Plasticine Relief Picture

This is another project from last year in Art Fundamentals, one where we had to make a sculpture on a 2D surface.  It had to be somewhat believable when lit up with a desk lamp (the shadows had to be planned out in the beginning stages of the drawing part).  My inspiration came from National Geographic magazines.  I also had a running theme of dinosaurs...

How to Paint a T-Shirt

I want to tell you about the wonders of Freezer paper.  It work a little bit like tracing paper, and you can iron it to your clothes.  It will peel off with very little effort.  It is a most wonderful bit of creation, I applaud the inventor of such a thing.  I had to buy some expressly for this one project.  Thank you Youtube for your amazing cache of resourceful information as well… :D

How to Decorate a Bear-Pan Cake

One of the proud moments of last year's torrential projects… a 3D cake pan.  I had a tiny version of it, and I thought it would have been cool to make a dozen little rice kris pie bears decorated as various classmates.  Then I realized that it was a lot of work to do, and decided to do something less stressful.  Like a singular bear cake.  I decorated it as the League of Legends (Riot Games) side character Tibbers for the Annie champion, in the Panda Annie skin.  The icing got more melty by the end of it, so some fur bits have longer tufts.  Tibbers was delicious.  Om Nom Nom!
