SO EXCITED.

Today, well I guess yesterday was my Mom's birthday. Unfortunately she was helping me cut out eyes and mouths for my concentration all day, but she said she enjoyed herself. I'm really excited to finish my concentration piece in a few hours, I just have to collage the eyes and mouth of the cheshire cat (i worked on the background tonight). Fingers crossed tomorrow is NOT critique because of the snow day because I will only have one piece to show for it... BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE GUESS WHAT TODAY IS?!!!
Really, you should know by now....

Here's a hint...

Okay, truth be told I couldn't find a photo. But today is my birthday and I am really excited, but only because I am in a delirium after collaging/writing APUS paper proposals all weekend. GAH.

GAH FEBRUARY... why do you taunt me so?

3 Great Things About February:


1. Valentine's Day (my dad bought ice cream cake!)
2. My Birthday! (Go PISCES)
3. CONCENTRATIONS....


Is it bad that I don't know what I'm doing. I've decided to redo the mushroom piece by putting the largest mushroom that Alice is supposed to be underneath in front of a sea of blue smoke. I also really want to go back and fix the cards so they look a bit more defined with the queen. Lauren, I may ask you about some ideas with the Queen because I want to push that idea a bit more. I still need to do the cat and I think I am going to take a photograph of two boys in striped shirts for tweedle dum and tweedle dee. Maybe some twins in American Apparel and then a weird perspective of the Queen's face would be cool. I don't really know at this point!

Oh and here's my other piece...


note that I still need to frame this. i had a really hard time drawing the queen and I think she takes away from the piece a bit (she's cartoony) but from far away I'm happy with the composition
