Day 18: The Palette

i've been getting too much sleep lately and now my brain's working more properly. hallelujah!
i'm inspired! how? talked to a friend, two or three (or maybe even four) nights ago about making art, and i remembered i had this book on design from Stockholm, which i had grabbed on my trip this summer to the beautiful vast country of Sweden.
i was looking through the book today and found inspiration from some of the young swedish designers, specifically Jenny Lundgren.
i'm a kid, forced to grow up because of the environment around me and my situation as a student here in Canada. Alas, you shall not stop me art school, people, world! I will create what i call IMAGINARY-LOOKING REAL-BUT-NOT-SO-MUCH FRIENDS. muhahaha.
i love Lundgren's concept - recycling, turning forgotten plastic design objects into something you can pull joy out of. i know it's been done a lot, a recycled sort of concept, but it feels great to build these small wonders. feels just like building with big lego.

and the perfect song to go along with my working condition now is Keane's 'Perfect Symmetry '
