Hey there, fellow creative!
I was not inspired when the letter R came up on my list. Until a few hours ago, I had no idea what I was going to write about. I even Googled a few ideas, but not the AI version. I am not a fan of AI for writing. Anyway, I spotted a few artists' names next to recycling art, and I went, I do that!
Nope, I stick to small things. Let me give an example. When diamond dot painting became a craze, I wasn't keen. Until about October two years ago, I decided to try a project featuring a peacock. I loved the colours.
I finished it, and it was fun, but not for me. If you had done these, you know they would give you loads extra of those tiny plastic dot things because losing them is too easy.
Stuck with the extra dots, I contemplated throwing them away because I didn't plan on doing any more diamond dot paintings. But, I decided to participate in a national art competition again, and would you know it, those dots were just what I needed.
No, I didn't win, and if they run it again, I probably won't win it either because only portraits have won. I don't paint portraits. But to get to the end of a long story, you never know what you can or cannot use in art. Even those tiny plastic dots!
Until tomorrow!
I do like the idea of recycling art. I'm sure we all have tons of things just sitting in our closet doing nothing. I certaintly do. But I think of them now and then for some art-ish projects but I never seem to do them.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day.
LOL! If it isn't for the art competitions, I probably wouldn't have thought about those dots either. Thank you for your visit today, Lissa. 💜
