I volunteered last Saturday at the Rose Wagner Theater for the Tumble Weed Film Festival for children through the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art. I was rewarded for my good deed-free t-shirt, free tickets to Sunday's Amazing Animation (short films), free pizza and free soda.
The Amazing Animations were really well done. I liked the Android named Floyd. He was trying to screw in a light bulb on the top of a sky scraper building, when he falls and gets a grip on a rubber chicken and falls nearly to the sidewalk when the chickens beak opens the air fills the chicken like a balloon.
Another short film was about a pigeon. The pigeon sabotages the CIA because he wants the whole bagel an agent is eating was hilarious. The agent had a briefcase that held controls to mass weapons of destruction. The bird ends up in the case and starts wreaking havoc over the city.
I have been working on some art to enter the Nami show. I scanned my art onto my computer and played with the use of color. I printed out two pictures and they came out strange looking since the color ink was too low. The blues came out looking pink and green came out looking brown.:(
I need to check the rules for the Nami art show to see if computer generated art is allowed. I am also planning to do traditional artwork for the show.
I am debating to use oil or watercolor. I may end up doing both. I have more experience using watercolor. I like the vibrant colors that oil paints provide. After the Show I will upload some pictures of the artwork.
I really liked these roses a few weeks ago and had to capture their beauty before they died.
I hadn't used my digital camera for a long time. I have had the same camera since 2003 thanks to my brother Christian who bought the camera from HP, while he was an intern for HP several years ago.
Thanks Christian!!!
