Who's that hiding in there?

There! Behind the teapot!

It's an adorable little robot! I wonder who made him :D

Cheesey always gets a part of his body in every photo.

Pattern De Fable. See how many Fables you can find!

Ben seems to be on a terrifying robot kick with these projects.

Here is his Banana-Fetusbot in its Cryogenic Chamber. It now haunts my dreams.

I made a Fablemelon out of a chubby cantaloupe.

Blueberry eyes, little strawberry ears, and a kumquat rind tail.

5/365: Take a walk, make something using whatever materials are available where you end up.

2011-02-16T21:05:00.000-05:00

Ben and I went for a walk.

Ben got right to work, collecting vines and sticks.

Ben picked a tree, that happened to have a resident terror-spider. I kept an eye on this guy.

I made a big heart out of leaves in the path.

Right after I finished making the heart, a little girl and her mom walked by. The little girl said "I WANT TO MAKE A HEART TOO!" so her mother helped her collect some leaves to make a tiny heart down the path from mine.

I made a little "teepee" for "Fables" to live in :)

Ben and I went hunting around for a head for his nature-bot. He built a pretty sturdy frame, added some eyes as a finishing touch, and the result...

was ABSOLUTE terror. It looked like something the KKK would burn, or some sort of Master Shake nightmare.

We couldn't leave TerrorCrow to frighten anyone (or cause anyone to call the cops about the fascist hippies making hearts and clan-bots in the forest) so after some laughs we tore him down.

4/365: Work with a collection of objects you have in your home.

2011-02-14T09:01:00.000-05:00

I have a ton of books. Somewhere between 200 and a bazillion. I took a picture of different fonts found on book titles and made a quick collage of Fable's name. It is 10% cute, 90% ransom letter from a rapist. I will probably revisit this collection idea later when I'm not tired and Fable isn't destroying anything we set up on the floor.

Ben was a bit more creative and adventurous, using his old video game collection to create a giant robot on the floor. He is awesome and I have dubbed him Shredder Fingers.

He SHREDS!

3/365: Make something out of paper, but DON'T use scissors, glue or draw on it.

Stamps carved from a potato, then printed with Acrylic paint.

Fable's silhouette (sort of hehe)

Caveman robot. THE FUTURE IS NOW!!

Carvin' mah potato!

2/365: Use your favorite animal for inspiration today.

Sharpie and Prismacolor pencils in my Moleskin.

The majestic & fabulous Fablicorn meets a fishy friend :)

For day 2 of the project, I chose my very favorite little animal, Fable. I love her Betta-fish/Rainbow Brite fins and tail. I think I can attribute this one to my recent narwhal kick (and having to argue with MULTIPLE people at my office who don't believe narwhals are real /facepalm). ANYWAY, Benjamin chose our other dog Machete (AKA Senator Cheese) and drew him as the cutest little robot in the world. Our dogs are badass. Believe it.
