I’ve never been one to just copy the crowd, so I knew my entry in a planner design contest was risky since it wasn’t repetitive floral like the rest. Still bummed it wasn’t chosen as a finalist. Oh well. I still love it. Maybe I’ll print my own. Design info in alt.
#MakersmARTch #MkrsmARTch #Connect
My Golden Coil contest entry design is my artistic representation of us and our connectedness even with our different orientations/directions and colors and sizes. A planner, tilted to the right about 45 degrees, sitting on the corner of a dark blue tufted cushion, with two gold paper clips to the right of it on the cushion. The planner has a gold metal binding, and the design is layered circle motifs all different sizes and colors, red, green, blue, pink, rusty orange on a creamy yellow background. The motif has a hole in it off to one side and three gradations of colors outward from the hole, darker the farther away from the hole. The layered motifs are arranged such that the holes are in different directions and they appear to be connected to at least one other via the hole’s loop.

When I was about 12, my uncle gave me a 50 foot spool of 12-conductor phone wire.

The ability to make things happen at a distance inspired my lifelong love of electronics.

Try as it might, the corporate world of tech never quite beat it out of me.

Drawings of an apple, purple iris, and Converse shoe(s). They're drawn with a Sharpie pen on white paper. Where the bleed through comes out on the other side another drawing appears - a mirror image. Coloured pencil has been used to enhance detail, add colour.

This photo is from 2019, when I was a guest artist in a local #pet shop. I created the mosaic together with the shop's customers and their children. It perfectly fits today's #MakersmARTch prompt: #connect as it connects both the tiles and the participants.

No #flash during this school play so as to not disturb the actors, actresses, and audience.
