Arcimboldo

Giuseppe Arcimboldo (1527-1593) italian painter

Out of all the great master painters, I think Arcimboldo is the true genius - see for yourself:

Felt Art

There was a time when my artistic side took over and tried to make "cute" things. I found this Japanese felt art book which I will share with you. It's super cute!

shooting star

I finally bought the canvas I needed to glue my origami stars and pyramids! I had 2 boxes of stars and pyramids I made out of origami paper that I bought in Japan, and wanted to make something out of it.

I used the stars for the star.

and the pyramids for the sky

almost done...

and finally finished! It's actually prettier (color wise) when you see it in real life.

I chose to do the shooting star since I was making it out of paper stars (how original). But I still have 3 more canvases (oh god) so give me suggestions for my next piece!
