Bored at a mission service... 1 month ago

....about a month ago. It was an evangelical Christian church with the band, etc. They gave out earplugs. I sat during the lesson and made a finger fortune teller out of the plastic wrapper the earplugs came in, and left it on the seat.



ouhhh, this i going to be great. 2 months ago

i draw picture, very strange/absract/random pictures, and i have been collecting them for a while now in this little booklet. I am going to re-draw them onto these yellow and green post-it notes i own and post one somewhere everyday. :)

At Last! 3 months ago

I finally did this! At least, I did the first installment of it. Since it says “pieces of art” I can’t stop at just one.

I blogged about it at www.anygivensundry.com (The July 28th entry.)

I have very little artistic talent, but ever since I learned how to fold paper cranes I try to leave small ones where people can find them.



itsnotperfefkt is writing. Finally.

Most likely I’ll put a quote I like and a cute doodle on a Post-It and stick some around my school before school starts so on the first day of school everyone would find them.

‘cept there’s the awkwardness of getting caught and the anxiety and everything.

Anyways I plan on getting my Post-It’s soon and I’m designing the doodles and finding the quotes. I’m so excited. I’ll scan my favorite Post-It if I actually end up doing this. - Love love love! <3



Why I added this to my list 4 months ago

I stumbled across the tag here on 43Things and thought it was a lovely idea, but wasn’t sure it was something I wanted to add to my list just yet.

And then my friend sent me this link:

And I remembered this link:

And so fate was sealed and I joined the club. :) “They make our hearts happy” as my friend would say. xo

Oh my, I’ve been so busy that I have neglected checking on my 43 goals list. I had totally forgotten about this goal. I’m setting out a plan …today!!!



Chelsea L. is trying to maintain a positive, forward momentum.

In progress... 5 months ago

This is an ongoing project for me. I’ve created a myspace where I can track my progress, but haven’t sent anything out in a while… I hope to start creating again shortly and sending my creations out into the unknown… we shall see…

Similar to the mix CD goal. 6 months ago

I might make little inspirational cards and leave them around parks, in people’s mail boxes, wherever someone might want to find a pick-me-up. (:



Untitled 10 months ago

Just finished up this one. It’s a quote by Andy Warhol translated into Portuguese, it reads: I broke something today, and I realized I should break something once a week…to remind me how fragile life is

I didn’t like it very much, I actually intended on adding a Pop Art effect to Warhol’s portrait and them adding many of this portraits, each in a different color, to the bookmark, but the result didn’t please me.
So what I did was write his last name multiple times in different shades of pink and purple and add a few blurring effects to them.

Anyway, I’m leaving it at a nearby restaurant later today.

Fig asks, “What is art? This is a rather foolish question, but I do wonder. I hope, more so than the answer (if there even is one), that there would be an interesting discussion.”
