Pumpkins!

Carving intricate faces into Pumpkins isn't really your thing? Well try some of these easy to do pumpkin tactics to help you get through the season. Sometimes more is less. But not in the case of this Burger. Make you have all the parts of the classic sandwich. It's just not the same without it.
And this Baseball Pumpkin is the perfect thing for your little star. Make sure your laces are thick enough to be seen from a distance. But if the scary faces is your cup of tea. try using the lace idea for the mouth on your horrific monsters.

Leaf Art

Here is yet again another super easy to do art project that perfect for the fall! Leaf Art. All you have to do is dip your leaf into colored paints and press on a piece of paper. Be careful to pull the leaf off of the paper at a moderate speed. Moving too slowly will cause you to lose the pattern of the leaf but moving too quickly may cause the leaf to break. But this is super easy and a good idea to do with children. it's a great way to make the best of leaves falling out of trees. (other than jumping into a leaf pile of course.)

Pencil Tip art

This must be the real test for pacence. Because there is no way that even with the best tools i could ever have the time and willingness to carve the led on the tip of a pencle.
If you think you can handle it try carving out the tip of your favorite pencle. Try useing a pin as your tool.
Good Luck!

Crayons!

This is one of the cooliest easyist art pices i have ever seen in my whole life. It's super fun, Colorful and easy to do. You hot glue your various crayons at the top of a canvus and then turn your hair dryer on high heat and blow at the crayons untill the wax melts. I have yet to try it out my self, but i plan to soon. If you plan on doing it and you wanna mix it up alittle bit try cutting out shapes for the crayon wax to work around, like this.
This is a super simple way to make the project your own.

I can't

One thing that an art teacher told me when i was very young is that the most common response she gets from students is that they can't draw something, or they're not good enough to do this, or that. Or they'd say that they didn't have any artistic abilities. and she would always ask them if they wore cloths.
The student would always look at her kinda funny because of course they wore clothing! Everyone does. Then when they finally responded to the question with a yes. she'd look them in the eye and say "there you go. Your an Artist." and they'd wonder how. Well your clothing is a reflection of you and your moods. Everything from the color to the style is all you. No it doesn't have to be this

 to be your own cloths art. Anything you wear is a reflection of you. Look at what your wearing right now. What does it mean about you>?

Read All About It.

I know that everyone's seen this video. But i just really have to rant about how Beautiful this performance really is. And the song choice was Perfect. The first time i saw this video it made me cry and i hated the fact that i was crying not because of pride or anything like that, But because the tears were blurring out my vision and i couldn't see the art that was playing out on the screen in front of me.

WARNING TO ALL ARTIST

In my opinion one of the most challenging things as an Artist is finding Balance. Not, not balance in your work.But balance in your life. I could spend the whole day locked up in my room working on a project. But it's important to stop and give time to those around you, the ones who inspire you  And also to give then your undivided attention. I remember this summer i promised myself that i would make memories. And that i would capture them by always having my Camera on me. But about halfway through the summer i noticed that i was only capturing moments. Not even memories i was always so caught up in getting the perfect shot that i forgot to enjoy the moment. So remember to put your art aside and pay attention to Other important things.

And enjoy the moment
