Hello and welcome to week #23 of the Liz and Kalli art project. We have been off kilter a bit here with busy summer schedules, so this posting comes on Wednesday instead of Tuesday. While I'm on the subject of busy summer schedules, you should know that for the next 2 weeks Kalli will be in Ohio visiting her family. When she returns we will likely do another Liz & Kalli Special Edition and then it will be back to business as usual. Ok, so let me tell you about this week's submissions. The word is wacky, Liz's in on the top and Kalli's is on the bottom.
*Liz
I have these wacky cardboard hangers from the sixties that I found at a flea market a while ago. They are groovy gals with hair that winds its way into a hanger at the top. I scanned her in and then colored her hair and put her on a striped background for extra wackiness. I think she qualifies.
*Kalli
Ha! I love Kalli's wacky drinking straw jewelry. Kalli claims that the word wacky was a bit of a stumper for her, but I think she nailed it. She says, "I ended up making a necklace and earring set out of materials I'd never use for my normal jewelry- plastic bendy straws and tape. I spend a lot of time working with semi-precious stones, crystals and expensive metals, but this is more like painted pasta shell jewelry like you make in kindergarten. It's kind of goofy and colorful, though not super beautiful!" Well, beautiful is a relative term, right?
See you back here in a few weeks.
