Wasabi nymph?

Well it’s Wednesday, the notorious hump day of the week…

Here’s what I have for you today.

Last night as I was working on my leaf collage, I had originally planned to set it on a green background but decided it would be too busy.

So I set it aside. Today however, I was doodling and decided to combine the doodle with the background.

The result was something yet untitled. Though I do have a few ideas… 😛

First, let’s take a look at what we have.

Doodle= green woman

Doodle combined with collage=Doodle collage

So titles.

Here’s a few I’ve been mulling over:

1-Green woman

2-Nymph

3-Wasabi girl

4-Wasabi nymph

5- Green goddess

6-Green wasabi nymph goddess 😛

Anyway, let me know what you think and if you can come up with any better titles let me know!

Cheers,

A

Well, here it is.

I finished “it”.

I’m not quite sure what “it” is, but I’m sure I’m finished because I’m tired and want to go to bed.

So, here you go. Seneca

You know how they liken the art an artist makes to a child, like you just gave birth to a piece.

Ya well, I’m not 100% sure yet,

(mainly because my judgment is slurred by need of sleep)

but I think this is the ugly one I put up for adoption. 😛

We’ll see how I feel in the morning.

Anyway, Goodnight and enjoy the video.

Coming Soon…

Alright so its another day where I’m on my lunch break brainstorming what to do next.

I figure I’ll give another collage a whirl tonight, but I’m not sure what to do it on.

So if you have suggestions before I get off work tonight, drop em in the comment box.

I figure you have about 4hrs from the time this is posted before I’m home.

In any event keep checking in.

Oh, and here’s another video, Painter song by Norah Jones.
