Help me decide on a theme: Chalk & Art Festival
I'm in my last stretch preparing for the 2nd Annual Chalk & Arts Festival this weekend. Last year I chalked Albert Einstein because he was such an influential person and I had wanted to recreate him in some way for some time.
Last year I won People's Choice Award, and actually today I was in the paper with this piece promoting the weekend's event! Too exciting!
This year, I'd like my piece to fit a theme. Because the event to raise awareness and benefit FosterAdopt Connect SWMO, I thought I'd find a portrait of someone that was in foster care. After some research, so far I've come to the conclusion to chalk Marilyn Monroe this year. I had no idea she was raised in foster care.
I thought I'd go for the classic Andy Warhol reference:
Congratulation on last year's win. You have a great approach to the art. I think you are right on with thinking of doing Marilyn Monroe. And I never knew she grew up in adoption home either.
Best of luck (more skill than luck) this coming weekend. I will follow you to see how it all goes. I also will resteem this.
Thank you, David! :) I'm planning on making a time-lapse video of it that I will be sharing here. I could use some luck too, it's gonna be hot out on that pavement!
Can't wait to see it. OK, I'm sending you some luck too.
How about this famous photograph?
Oh man! That is a great photo! If I had more time I'd totally be into it, but I have to keep it simple with just a face.
+10 for Chalk!
