String Heart

So, a few months ago I found a DIY tutorial of a heart made of strings. I was tempted to try it, but never had the time. Finally, I got some free time and decided to try it. All you need for this project are:

- A piece of wood (you can get them for free at Home Depot, on the very back of the store.)
- String (any color you like)
- Spray Paint (optional)
- Nails

I kinda regret that I didn't spray paint the woodblock beforehand. I might want to do something bigger with a darker background sometime in the future. Be careful that the back of the wood might be sharp because of the nails that got through. It took me around 45 minutes to do this project. Might be fun to do different shapes like stars, triangles, or random shapes. Good luck!

Love Song

I recently got this project from Illustration class where I had to create an illustration for a song of my choice. The song I chose was: Missing You Like Crazy - Michael Alvarado

This is one of my favorite songs and because of this project, I understand the story of the song from the lyrics. The story is about a girl and a boy living far apart. They miss each other, but they couldn't see each other. The reason why I made a ferris wheel is that, the mood of the story reminds me of being on a Disneyland or somewhere happy, but the meaning of the song is sad. When looking at the picture, you can see that the mood is happy, cheerful, happy-go-lucky, and elated, but the people in it are not happy because they are far apart.
