The blog-make over...

As Mika told you last week, we're kind of giving Miss P/M a re-do... we weren't happy with the way it all was going, and Mika got a bit tired of that pinkish color the blog had...

So, a total make-over...

We're busy experimenting with a new fresh look, and... we have some new topics for you to join in every week (or every other week, that depends on the topic)...

Ready?

Here they are:

1. Treasures from your garbage can...

2. My buddies choice...

3. Do it with this, (the ultimate art challenge)...
4. The Weekend special: the Miss P/M duet, in two episodes...

Sounds great, doesn't it???

We do not like to reveil the details of all the topics right now... you'll find out about all four of them as we go along... what we do like you to know right now is that we won't restick you or ourselves to scrapbook like projects... the artform for the projects on this blog is free and totaly up to you... the same with the medium you choose... pens, paint, paper, fabric, photoshop, clay... what ever you like... pictures are welcome, but it's not nesessary to include them...

Well, that said, I start with the first topic... no. 1: treasures from your garbage can...

The idea behind this is that it's kind of easy to make something beautiful with your store bought and ready to go items... but what about all the stuff we throw away? If you look closely, there are many treasures to be found in your garbage...

So... the deal in this topic is to choose one or a few items out of your garbage, and use these in your art-project... but, watch out: you have to use the items you pic... and to make sure you don't sneak something out of your creative process, you have to show the 'treasures' first, by showing them on your blog...

This is my garbage after a whole week in the studio:

and these are my two treasures... some plastic packing material, and a flyer from a museum my son went to last weekend...

Well, I'm going to find out how I can get these two items in an art project and hopefuly you like the idea and join me... it's easy, pick something from the trash, show us the items (post a link in the comment section) and make some art!!!

Enjoy!!
