Quick Lil' Update

So well my little outer space buddy is giving me a pain in the neck (not litterally but yeah) so I am taking a break from him at the moment to concentrate on other things. I'm almost finished a bag made out an old pair of cargo pants that i started in about 2005, sewed that up just have to decorate it (how I don't know...), I'm also making hair accessories/jewellery, found a use for the three blank canvas' I had, creating stacks of stencils and also re-vamping a pair of sand shoes and a pair of Jiffy ballet/dance shoes. Will be updating as soon as they are done.

Project 1 - Stuffed Toy Alien

I was looking around the dump I call my room the other day when I noticed a pile of costumes that I got from my old high school, most of the stuff in it I use occasionaly (costume parties are big at the moment) but one of the pieces I don't use is a gold scarf/shawl with black fringe trimming. I'm not sure exactly what the material is but it is really crinkly and rough, so I couldn't make clothes or the like out of it.

Usually I don't like aliens but I just thought this would be the perfect material to make a little alien out of. Here's a sketch of what I am hoping it will look like:

I think he looks kinda cute his body will be made out of the gold material, his eyes and nose will be blac material and his mouth and the little planet (or it could end up being a star) will be hand stitched with black thread. I am not yet sure wether I will give him antennas or not, or if I do how they will be.

These are the templates I have cut out so far (only half of them though, minus ears, eyes, nose and possible antennas) they are on note paper at the moment will be transferring them to something else. Hopefully he won't take that long to do. I will post more pictures as he progresses/when finished.

And So The Title Comes True...

As the title of my blog says I have found my Creativity... Eureka... Not much at the moment though just photoshopping it at the moment 100x100 icons, quote graphics, banners and the like. will post once I get them off of my computer (I currently don't have the internet on it which is partly the reason for not updating this blog more.) also i will post photos of my older pieces such as high school assignments for both Vis Comm and Studio Arts as well as Textiles, which is not my best work. Expect at least one more post this week.
