Things Ta Do With Art That Ain’t That Good
On Your Level
Our very own intellectual Mastermind of the Universe, Art Jeanyus, reveals art's biggest ideas to help you become a famous artist.
Art Jeanyus here, back again and taking a long deserved break from being a genius lab rat for the less fortunate. Today I want to discuss how you as an art collector can reuse some of those paintings you’ve purchased in the middle of a night while you were blacked out, or perhaps you just felt bad for some dirty kid on Alberta street selling their not so good work for mere pennies. You have to pass that eye sore of unfortunate creativity every time you walk down the hall, and even though you can’t bare to face the picture itself anymore you can’t just toss it in the trash because that would be wasteful. So in this article, I will reveal to you a fun thing to do with those old, worthless, not-so-great works of art that will turn them into something fun, useful, and appealing to anyone who happens by.
- Grab some tape, crappy old paintings on various materials, scissors, and a keen sense of your head size.
- Lay out the work in a long triangle so that if you fold it in half each side would reach from your shoulders to your lower back and waist.
- Keep the work folded in half, and cut a half circle directly out of the middle of the work at the crease. Make sure the hole when opened up is large enough to fit your head through.
- Place the work on the floor or table and cut out half circle sleeves so that it resembles a tank top or vest, in it’s own way.
- Place the item over you head and WALLA!!!
You’ve just made a not-so-bulletproof vest!!!
See pictures below for reference.
