IlloFriday...dreams....
well first of all, i know alot of you are probably wondering how this ties into this weeks theme of dream, but honestly it does. first thing that popped into my head was some sort of shooting star idea. ya know when you were a little kid, or maybe still to this day, whenever you see a shooting star you were to make a wish. and if you were lucky that wish would come true. there are so many different sizes, shapes, and colors of people ive come into contact with in my years. in this piece, each star represents a different dream that someone has wished for. and just like jimminy cricket use to say, 'when you wish upon a star, your dreams come true.' man how many times have we heard that, jimminy's getting some real bank off of that one. probably glad he was the one to set it loose to the world back in the day. man i love that little guy!! so here it is. leave some comments and your own interpretation. i love hearing what you guys get out of my art. for those of you who are wondering, that word says 'dreams' and its made out of pipe cleaners i bent into crazy shaped letters. enjoy.
oh yeah....only 1 more day until im in tampa rocking out to 311 with cheryl, jordan, and jerome. what an awesome time we will have. oh yes we will....watch out!!! cuz 311s got the boom ya'll.

Did you use gold leaf for the stars ? They look metallic and very solid. For some reason this contribution reminds me of those old Schoolhouse Rock cartoons that used to play on Saturday mornings decades ago. Episodes like 'I'm just a Bill' , 'Figure 8', and 'Verb the Superhero' are what I grew up with and this definitly evokes those memories.
Swoosh ! Pow !

thanks steve!! thats what it reminds me of. i knew it had some sort of old skool feel and thats what i was going for with the colors i chose, but i wasnt sure what. and now that you said that, it does!!! and the stars are just gold and yellow acrylic mixed together. thanks for the comments!
