Life is Art

I've been busy lately, creating "life is art" replicas. I found the site and thought "hey, I can do this myself!" So, I set about outside and took photos of objects (mostly natural ones) that represented alphabetical letters. Then, in Picasa, I created artistic representations of famous quotes. I made one for my mom called "Mothers", two for my aunt and uncle entitled "Liefde" and "Family", and 3 for Ian for Father's Day, entitled "Family", "Laughter", and "Friends". I think they turned out quite well! We printed them out as 8x10s and added a mat for a 10x13 frame and the result was awesome. Here are the results:


The F is the ramp up the playstructure, the R is a high chair outside, I is a stick, E is the side of the red wagon, N is sticks, D is a latch on our shed door, and S is the hose.

L is the corner of the sandbox, A is the A-Frame of the swingset, U is the seat of the swing, G is the arm of the patio chair, H is a cement block, T is a shovel, E is branches on a tree, and R is the high chair (once again - it's super-hard to find an R outside).

The F and A are similar to the ones above, the M is the side of the red wagon, I is a dandelion, L is similar to above, and Y is a tree.

I also created a picture 'frame' for my dad for his birthday but haven't given it to him yet. Since he doesn't check my blog at all, I'll share it with you all. (He barely knows how to turn on the computer so I think I'm safe :) )



Cool, huh?
