Do not bore the Art Monster. He likes to help fix one's artistic issues.
sketch - work in process. |
Art Monster:
Here is a project that involves sculpture. Something new for you to do.
Artist:
I hate sculpture.
I do not do sculpture.
I enjoy doing my two dimensional work.
Art Monster:
Sounds more like 'won't do'.
Anyway, you are stuck in a rut.
I don't want to see another drawing.
What about the pottery class and welding class you took?
Seems like sculpture to me.
Artist:
I am drawing my two dimensional art. Don't bother me.
Art Monster:
I have signed you up for this project due in the fall involving sculpture.
You have two choices: you can embrace your inner sculptor or embarrass yourself.
Artist:
I love sculpture. Look, I made a pedestal for the project.
The first of many steps of this sculpture project. Pedestal made of card board and corner protectors. |
I have found embracing my Art Monster is easier than to silence him. If silenced, he tends to make me buy shoes. A lot of shoes. He tends to conspire with Life. Life is a sarcastic muse. Never say 'I am bored' to her. Otherwise, she will give you amusing and not so amusing challenges in your life.
this is hysterical. same as the cookie making monster i was subjected to years ago.
ReplyDeleteI remember that but I had fun when you and cookie making monster visited me.
