NaNoJouMo: Day 24
Day 24 – Happy Birthday by Altered Images
Today is the NaNoJouMo host’s birthday. I decided to do the page for her. I drew a tangled birthday cake. I used Sharpies and watercolors.
Happy Birthday Dawn!!

NaNoJouMo: Day 23
Day 23 – Why Can’t I be You? by The Cure
I forgot to cut the flags before attaching the string. I thought I could do it without removing it but it didn’t work out so well.

NaNoJouMo: Day 17 thru Day 22
There are six days in this post rather than four so that way I could be all caught up with posting. Todays’s prompt will be posted later today.
Day 17 – Lightning Bolt by Jake Bugg
Day 18 – Easy Way Out by Gotye
Day 19 – I Want You Back by The Jackson 5
Day 20 – You’ve Got the Love by Florence and the Machine
Day 21 – Try by Colbie Caillat
I used some watered down acrylic paint so the words in the background would be visible. Unfortunately it came out lighter than I wanted. I wanted it a much darker green.

NaNoJouMo: Day 13 thru Day 16
Day 13 – How soon is now? by The Smiths
When listening to this song two ideas came to mind the tv show Charmed so I thought of doing something with a witch casting a spell and my other idea was to write about my shyness which would be much harder. I decided to go with the harder one.
Day 14 – Suit & Tie by Justin Timberlake
I was going to do a penguin with a bow tie but decided instead of doing that I would do a regular tie.
Day 15 – Jackson by Johnny Cash
I had planned on doing someone dancing on a keg but decided instead I preferred drawing a horse/pony with a keg body.
Day 16 – We Will Become Silhouettes by The Shins
I didn’t listen to the song I just pulled up the lyrics and the last line caught my eye. I took it as when people die they become silhouettes/ghosts/memories. So I created two silhouettes and one where a woman has died and is slowly turning into a silhouette/ghost/memory. I did eventually listen to the song and know its about atomic bombs.

NaNoJouMo: Days 9 thru 12
Day 9 – Palisades Park by Counting Crows
I tried to draw part of a pinball machine. I should have drawn more on the blue since pinball machines tend to have a lot of art or pictures.
Day 10 – Daydreaming by Paramore
Day 12 – Don’t Know Why by Norah Jones
This did not come out how I would have liked and the handwriting made it even worse. If I have time at some point I may redo the handwriting.
