AEDM #7

This is an altered rolodex card. I'm not thrilled with how this one came out but I don't feel like doing anything else. It was better before I pulled out the paint but oh well! They can't all be winners.

AEDM #6

Thursdays are busy days for me, so my art for today is a doodle I did during a meeting.

Day five of Art Every Day Month- a pair of Fall artist trading cards. I don't really make ATCs very often.

AEDM #4

Here's what I've done today for Art Every Day Month day 4. It's another Rainbow Loom creation, from a tutorial by feelingspiffy. It's a 3-D Happy Cupcake. The bottom came out a little wonky, but it's cute! It's about 1 1/2 inches tall.

Art Every Day Month day 2

Here is day two of Art Every Day Month. I'll eventually add more to this page, but this is what I did today.

I drew her on a scrap of a book page and colored her with colored pencils. I have a hard time with faces. I really should practice more often. She is glued into an art journal that I made quite a while ago but always forget to use. The pages are all animal prints in wild colors. The flowers at the bottom are washi tape.

Still Alive!

I've barely posted anything all year, but here I am! I'm going to be participating in Art Every Day Month so I thought I should dust off my blog and get posting.
I'm a little late, but here is what I made yesterday (November 1st). It's a Rainbow Loom Granny Square key chain. I don't really think it qualifies as art but it works for me. I made it using this tutorial by feelingspiffy on youtube. She has a lot of awesome Rainbow Loom tutorials so check her out if you're interested. If you aren't familiar with the Rainbow Loom, it's a loom that is used to weave together small colored rubber bands (about the size of a dime) into bracelets and other items. 
The granny square is made without the loom- you only use the hook, which is basically a crochet hook. It might look big in the picture, but it's only about 2 1/4 inches square. The tutorial makes a bigger granny square, but since this was going to be a key chain, I stopped here.
