Get Your Head In The Clouds





Here are images of my Get Your Head In The Clouds art piece that I created as one of my projects for being artist of the month in March for the Dallas Museum of Art. It was made using those body scrub things, several strings of lights and foam coreboard. The pictures show it only partially completed and with the photos added. Participants created imaginative hats and had their photos taken. Headshots only. Then they learned how to tranfer their images over onto clear packing tape and these pictures of them were then pinned in the cloud.

So everyone got their "head in the cloud". I wanted to impress upon participants the creative benefits of taking time to play (hat making) and dream (Head in the clouds). It really worked - we all had a blast and a good crowd of participants of all ages made crazy hats using flower arrangement materials, which symbolized growing creatively - get it? wink wink
