Description:

This swap is for 1 fun creative Weird Wacky Wonder ATC based on Travis Louie's art. His works are oddities of weird people or creatures. (Google search his name and look for images of his works of art)

You will then make an ATC using the heads of one of his pieces of work and cut out or draw what they might be doing from another source. Look up scubba diving, mowing the lawn, eating an ice cream cone, etc. and cut out the image to add to a background that works nicely with it. Add other embellishments you would like, such as hanging a fish around it's neck or playing the violin or what ever fantasy you wish your new "being" to be or doing. Analyze the work, make up a strange holiday and add it to the ATC. Like….. National "suck your neighbor’s toes day" or “wash your eyes out with lighter fluid day”. The idea would be to be creative, quirky, just totally off the wall and not make a bit of sense while having fun doing it! Make your partner smile or least ways make her pee her pants! LOL!

Since this swap is totally your creation and not profile based, you can work on it any time and simply have it ready to send on the due date.

Never made an ATC. Got supplies from needlewings, worked hours on one and it looks shitty.
Going to practice more before joining an ATC swap. Sorry Wanda!

goodness Ryoan, don't over think it! Just use a scrap book background or just throw some paint down. Then go back and cut out one of the faces and cut out one of the bodies I provided and make a whole new person. Glue on with an Elmer's glue stick. Easy Peasy! If you feel you can't do lettering for your holiday, since you don't have a printer, you could either write it in or take a magazine and cut out the words or letters you need to glue down. The main thing is that you have fun and do your best. I think we are our own worst critics! We are all artists, maybe you just don't know it. Have faith in yourselves!
