My Fall Break Creations

So, fall break is nearly over. I have one day left and homework has already called dibs on it. :( I didn't make as much art as I would have liked this break. I actually spent most of my time catching up with friends and working at Found on Fremont. But, I did manage to make a recycled slide lamp shade, which is something I've wanted to do for a while. I still need to add another set of jump rings to the top, but for the most part it's finished! I'm so excited about it. I can definitely send 'Scrap' in NE Portland kudos because they always have recycled slides for only 10 cents a piece!

I also started another mixed media assemblage. I haven't made one in a while, so I was stoked when I got inspired. The funny thing is, this is actually one of my brain stormed ideas from high school IB art two years ago. I'm going to try and use all those young high school ideas from now on, because I really like how this feminism/women inspired piece is coming along.

I made use of an old drawer and some old dictionary pages for the backdrop of the piece.

I hope I'll get a chance to finish it soon!
