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.

NaNoJouMo: Days 5 thru 8
Day 5 – Second Hand News by Fleetwood Mac
The scanner does not like neon or metallic colors. The eyes and shirt on the guy in the middle are neon yellow and the propellers on his hat are a metallic silver.
Day 6 – Don’t Carry it All by The Decemberists
Day 7 – Through the Dark by Alexi Murdoch
I wanted sad eyes crying with mascara running. However her eyes look angry. I still like how it came out though.
Day 8 – Another is Waiting by The Avett Brothers
I really like how my rose came out. I thought I was going to have trouble drawing it but it came out really well.
