Titled "At Home With Muffin" this is part of my "homebody" series for Thursday's class. The original idea was the same, but I planned to make Muffin a 3D paper sculpted object. Then I tried for a hybrid object. Neither approach worked and I fell back on what I knew--pet portraits!
My secret here is that I have no carpentry skills, but I do have ingenuity, so I bought a 2 pack of scrapbooking frames from Michaels and some hobby wood from Home Depot to make the case. Then I gathered scraps from around the house such as styrofoam and fabric and threw them together to make an interesting scene.
It was well-received! One classmate commented on the sheer joy that is present in the image. My teacher thought it looked like a comic book panel and he was right--imagine a bunch of these stacked together to form a narrative. Ooooh! So much potential.
