Every year at work ( St. Joesph's School ) I scramble about trying to come up with a costume that is JK friendly. I LOVE the spooky scary ones, but alas I don't want to be responsible for years of therapy for a 4 year old. SO... I came up with this groovy character from a book that the kids absolutely went ga ga for. Of course if I started it back in September when I decided to do it, the mask would have been much bigger.... bobble head big!! However I waited until the last week to do it and I have to be satisfied with this not so bobble head mask. Here is the process and tomorrow I will post pics of the costume in it's entirety.<br />

Your basic paper mache balloon! Used a paint brush to cover balloon with glue and newspaper strips. A few days of layering to make it strong and durable.<br />
<br />
<br />

When it's all dry and you are happy with the amount of layers you can break the balloon and you are left with the shell of your mask.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRvKxMF5O_GLQp_Cs4C4n6-YrTNw8BAfTSvcgm31PeopUODSgSh-QjVc9nCBlcFCRsMspLZAgD5ZubMAHgiOLb7vT5Ke2cGFZOSEpsp8aGMzoLY6aALajP3s92C-TZ5MfuY-cN1gY1cw/s1600/paper+mache+step+3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left:1em; margin-right:1em"><img border="0" height="300" width="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRvKxMF5O_GLQp_Cs4C4n6-YrTNw8BAfTSvcgm31PeopUODSgSh-QjVc9nCBlcFCRsMspLZAgD5ZubMAHgiOLb7vT5Ke2cGFZOSEpsp8aGMzoLY6aALajP3s92C-TZ5MfuY-cN1gY1cw/s400/paper+mache+step+3.JPG" /></a></div><br />
Next I used some heavy gauge wire to form the ears and then attached them to the mask with Duct tape. <br />
<br />

ok.... so I got carried away with the duct tape.... and no it's not batman!<br />
<br />

I love gesso just as much as duct tape so I added a couple layers of it to the mask to give it some tooth for the paint to adhere to. Mmmmm paint...<br />

One thing I know for sure is that a mother's love for her children is the greatest bond that there will ever be. My own children are the reason I breathe and my greatest achievement in this life is being their mother. This journal entry is about the everlasting love a mother has for her children from the moment they are conceived and when they leave the nest and start their own lives and families. Until the day we leave this earth... our children are our greatest loveAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07681203259033007998noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819455997314325812.post-52604791608413858782012-04-23T16:46:00.000-07:002012-04-23T16:50:40.848-07:00<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Week # 2 of the fanpage art journal project and as you saw in the last post , I drew the word " Breathe" out of the old tin coffee can! I thought this was perfect and possibly meant to be , because this past weekend there was a benefit social for a local resident who is recovering from a double lung transplant! What a strong , amazing woman she is. I couldn't even begin to imagine all she has gone through and all that is still to come. This little art journal entry is for you Lynn Kotz... you are my inspiration xoAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07681203259033007998noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819455997314325812.post-69470024769265200832012-04-16T15:09:00.000-07:002012-04-16T15:09:55.049-07:00Fan page Art Journal Project 2012 Week # 2 " Breathe "<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<br />
Thank you to Gina Allen Botier, a fan of my art page, for submitting this word for the project.<br />
I have many fond memories, as I'm sure you all do, of spending countless afternoons playing and lounging at the beach. As a child I lived close to the Atlantic ocean, in a small community on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia one of most favourite places in the world. The best place I could have ever wished to live as a young girl. <br />
This prompt brought back some of those treasured memories . The taste of the salty water when it was accidently swallowed, the smell of sea air, the sound of the crashing waves, and the sight of the jelly fish floating lazily around us. The soft warm sand under my toes and the prickly seaweed mixed with smooth beach pebbles and shells made me feel at home...happy. I also remember how small and insignificant I felt while playing near the ocean... how easily it could swallow me up with those powerful waves and even as a small child I knew that as beautiful and as exciting it was, it demanded respect . I miss the beach. I miss everything about being near the ocean. One day I'll go back and revisit this old childhood playground of mine and reacquaint myself with the sea. </td></tr>

The idea was that I would begin another art journal project using words, themes, quotes, lyrics and ideas from the followers of my page. As I receive the words etc. I write them out on slips of paper, fold them up and put them into my trusty old enamel coffee pot. Each week, for 52 weeks, I will be pulling a new idea from this pot and will use the word in my art journal in any way that comes to me.<br />
The ideas shared will spark my creative process and force me to think outside my comfort zone.... it won't be easy but I enjoy the challenge and am very excited about this project. My hope is that when it is completed I will have a Book filled with images and words inspired by all of those that have contributed. I can't thank you enough for participating and helping out with this project !<br />
Over the past few days I have received some fantastic feedback from numerous friends and here are some of those ideas they have shared with me and here is the first word I drew from the pot! Please visit my fan page, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lisa-Schmidt-Art-Studio/153812141326067">http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lisa-Schmidt-Art-Studio/153812141326067</a> like it and join in the fun! I will add every word you send my way to the old pot and I hope you follow me on this new artistic journey! xoxo<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">I began this painting a couple months ago with no preconceived plan other than I wanted to use blue and yellow paint, and let my emotions do the rest . No matter how many times I paint like this , I am always surprised with the finished piece and have to stand back and try to understand what I have created and why. I do notice ( as has other people ) that my artwork almost always includes circles. Even as I look back in my art journals, I notice that on every page there sits a circle. Interesting.</td></tr>

The symbol of the circle helps us to connect to the depths of our soul or "true self".<br />
<br />
Ralph Waldo Emerson begins his essay entitled "Circles", with the statement, "The eye is the first circle; the horizon which it forms is the second; and throughout nature this primary picture is repeated without end. It is the highest emblem in the cipher of the world. St. Augustine described the nature of God as a circle whose centre was everywhere and its circumference nowhere."<br />
<br />
Carl Jung studied the archtypal meaning of circles:<br />
"The circle (or sphere) is a symbol of the Self. It expresses the totality of the psyche in all its aspects, including the relationship between man and the whole of nature. Whether the symbol of the circle appears in primitive sun worship or modern religion, in myths or dreams or in the spherical concepts of early astronomers, it always points to the single most vital aspect of life - its ultimate wholeness."<br />

My completed painting aptly named " Silent Moon " as my eye is drawn first to the moon like orb and it sits as if watching over the confusion below... waiting. This painting has taken me months to complete because it seemed I needed to be in a certain frame of mind to work on it which really drove me crazy! I would sit for hours ( I seriously would ) and wait for it to speak to me and when it finally did I believe the result was worth the wait. I would love to know what you see or feel when you look at this painting, there is no wrong answer, so please feel free to comment xoxAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07681203259033007998noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819455997314325812.post-78064970901729385622012-03-12T10:09:00.002-07:002012-03-12T10:20:17.576-07:00Poetry... next tattoo<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Okay , so by now I am sure that everyone is quite aware of the new web sensation <a href="http://pinterest.com/">http://pinterest.com/</a> and if you are not... you are either going to thank me or hate me. <br />
I have been introduced to this highly addictive site by co workers who can't stop raving about the delicious triple chocolate , smooth peanut butter, crunchy pretzel, dripping caramel, loaded with nutty goodness cupcakes! Or the fashion and decorating advice with tutorials that make you break out the Visa and hit your favourite furniture or clothing stores. And let's not forget about the creative aspect! Millions of photos of everything from Garden and Home design, Tattoos, Art, Music, Books, Movies, Posters, Prints, Travel, Humour, Do - It - Yourself .... everything! I am a self diagnosed magazine and book addict and this site is heaven to me. I can spend hours on here pouring over beautiful photographs and reading all the helpful advice. HOURS! There is literally anything and everything on here that you are looking for and even things you have never thought of but now it's all you are thinking about!<br />
<br />
That is the "interesting" part of this site..the "pin" part is where you can create your very own Board, label it according to your interest and pin images that you love to your board!!! It's like clipping out photos from magazines and sharing them with others..... millions of others. The images are shared from other blogs, magazines and sites and they seem to be a free for all, no permission needed. I say this because as I was scrolling through various art boards I stumbled upon a photo of myself holding my painting ! I know there are copyright issues going on with Pinterest but I don't know enough about it to comment on it. I can definitely see how this could be upsetting to some artists or publishers who are not getting credit for their work. The person who pinned up my photo is not someone I know , I was not asked, however it was because she liked the photo and wanted to share it not because she was going to re create my art and take credit for it.... so it's all good!<br />
<br />
If you ask me... I say go check out the site, you won't regret it ,the photos are endless and so is the inspiration, which is why you can lose yourself and dare I say... lose hours of your life. Oh well.... it could always be worse!<br />

Wow how cool was it when I saw this awesome award posted on my facebook wall from one of my artist friends <a href="http://www.facebook.com/fhermission" style="background-color: white; color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;">Fher Ymas Visual Artist</a> ( who in my opinion is a very talented artist ) I have never received an award for blogging before so I am very honoured that my little piece of the blogosphere was found interesting enough to be given one. So thank you very much <a href="http://www.facebook.com/fhermission" style="background-color: white; color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;">Fher Ymas Visual Artist</a> It is very much appreciated :)<br />

Better than the last one I was working on which now sits sullenly in the corner of the room. ( Dreamscape) I swear it gives me dirty looks! Maybe it will grow on me one day , maybe I will figure out what was going on in my head while I was painting it. Until then I will keep you all updated on other Pretty Little Messes I am creating like this one.

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">This is the abstract painting I was working on .... and working on.... I still don't know what it is or what it means but I enjoyed the process and it felt good . The painting began with an underpainting of greens yellows and soft blues and then I added layers of dripping paint letting it go where the water wanted to take it. After it sat for weeks... and after I stared at it for another few weeks... I decided to just go for it and paint with feeling rather than plan . Everytime my brush touched the canvas ( which is also warped by the way...) I had no preconceived idea what was going to transpire! I don't even know if it is finished! Oh well for now I am calling it finished and gave it the title "Dreamscape" because I have these bizarre dreams with strange landscapes and buildings and while painting this it started to look like a strange world with distorted trees, water and sky. What do you see it it?</td></tr>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">This painting was another one I started about 6 months ago or so, in the same way. I began with an underpainting of soft red washes and slowly built it up with blues, oranges and greens. I let the paint travel across the canvas , stopping where it would and then came back to it days later with a fresh pair of eyes. Some of the negative spaces looked like words and symbols and I pulled these out with the paint and just continued to play with it until I was satisfied with it. It was meant to be a fun spirited piece with a positive message. Therapy?? You bet!</td></tr>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Having creative blocks is one of the most frustrating things that can happen to an artist. I have been struggling trying to find inspiration and find my mojo....I struggle with trying to be original , making a statement and remaining true to myself. I work through these little crisis by just simply walking away from my paints or beads and pick up a book or go for a walk. I drink a million cups of coffee and eat way too much chocolate, listen to my favourite songs, pluck my eyebrows, play with the dogs.... and when that doesn't work... red wine. It is really a horrible feeling when I have this primal urge to paint and I go in my studio surround myself with all my delicious art supplies and then I sit... and stare at the canvas ... waiting. I know it will come I know I have to be patient but it is oh so frustrating!! Maybe that's why I put on the Viking hat... maybe I thought it would help?</td></tr>

It's been forever since I've felt any inspiration or energy to paint and it's been putting me in a somber mood to say the least. I thought today I would be the day.... and it kinda was. I mean I didn't paint a masterpiece or anything but I managed to do a bit of art journaling . My mind has been foggy and clouded lately and sometimes journaling helps with the creative block and so I brought out the water colours , markers and music... ( very important ) and began to put paint to paper. It felt good to do one last little scribble in 2011 even if was just something as simple as this , and maybe... just MAYBE... it will kick start my inner artist and wake her up! Let's all hope it works or it's gonna get ugly!! <br />

Maybe it was the clouds that brought this song to mind "Both Sides" by Joni Mitchell but whatever it was I am loving this song more today than I ever did.<br />
