Posting a day late because I was under the weather yesterday!

Day 30: patience is a virtue

Tries to make a face out of bottlecaps taken from a bar. 4 hours later, I'm frustrated and faceless. Here's face 30:

#29... Paper cut face

First paper cut art. The background is spray painted wood.

#28: face of light

Lightbulb face

Face 27: melted crayons face

Bringing it back to the basics with this face made with crayons, a 8" by 10" canvas & a lighter.

Experimenting with melted crayons...

#26: art kills dog

Just kidding! Harley is just snoozing while being a good model for my faces of the day! I carved face stamps again and stamped them on a watercolor washed background.

# 25 ... Eraser face ...

Need a lot more practice with this DIY stamp/printing technique. My first attempt...

Painted this face on 8 by 10 inch canvas. Created the colors/shades with water mixed with coffee, tea, cinnamon and pepper.

Day 17: Cheese face with Jeremy Bradford

Cheese plate face made while out with mr. Jeremy Bradford

Shadow puppet face: day 16

San Diego experienced a huge power outage yesterday.

Sun, Ivan, Harley and I decided to make the best of it...

Harley howled at the bright moon. The humans ate pasta by the candlelight. Humans and canine filmed a cool blair-witch style video on Ivan's Ipad.

A beer at the blind lady topped off the night perfectly. As we were walking back to Sun's house all of the lights came on in Normal Heights.... the world's order was restored once again.

However, when I got home to OB the power was still out.... so I turned on my camping light and made a shadow puppet face.

Rock your face.... Day 15

. Faces of rock love .

Face 14: Seriously sharpied...

My face(s) of the day: this drawing is prep for a bigger project I'm thinking about...

Tired face: day 13th

Had big ideas for my face today but spent too much time thinking and not enough time doing.

Before I knew it, it was so late.

At the end of the day any face is a face.

Face of Day 12: hand stitched obsessed

Finally able to post day 12! Things have been crazy... lots of work, and staying @ Harley's (dog featured in Day 11) house, which doesn't have the internet. Plus, Manny left to go back to NYC on friday (wahhhhh!)Basically, Whit= all over the place.

Onwards and artwards onto Day 12...

Day 12: Why?... What?.... How???...

Why

1.  I've grown to ♥ hand sewing/stiching... (as shown in Day 5, 11, 12). I daydream of the endless possibilities of what I can do with embroidery floss & a needle....


2. I  ♥ typography


3. Laziness. I thought it wouldn't take long. So wrong.


4. My desire to change my blog header (thought may end up cool)

What

1. Canvas Pad


2. Pencil to trace


3. Scissor


4. Embroidery Floss


5. Lots of sewing needles

How

The reason I ♥ hand sewing is there is a lot of creative freedom...a.k.a. I totally winged this, ha.

Doggy daze.... Day 11

For the next 3 weeks, I am dog sitting Harley, who might be the coolest dog ever.

For my day 11 face I decided I wanted to hand stitch/sew felt again. Thank god Harley was modeling because he can make anything look cool.

Smile!

I still got to post the faces from days 11 & 12.. But thought I'd share some jewelry that will put a smile on your face!
