This is a project that I'm entering for the Lomography Contest. I was contemplating what I should make for this contest. I figured that everyone else was going to make stuff with/ or resembling cameras. This was meant to be really abstract. I hope everyone enjoys this project!! :D

Instructions

  1. Small 2012 06 11 12.44.25

    Get out your disposable camera. (I happened to obviously get this one from CVS. (Most disposable cameras come in packs of 3 such as this one.)) Then start to take off the cover.

  2. Small 2012 06 11 12.51.38

    Be careful taking it off for 2 reasons. Reason 1: The holes make it easier to break when taking it off. Reason 2: If your camera has a STICKER cover (like mine)it will be glued on so much that it will take 5 minutes to peel it off instead of a minute. This glue also makes peeling off more precarious. (I almost ripped mine a coupe of times.)

  3. Small 2012 06 11 13.00.51

    Place it down on computer paper (8 1/2" x 11" paper). Then trace the cover on the paper. Don't forget the holes! :) If you have a sticker cover, pull it off once you're done tracing.

  4. Small 2012 06 11 15.50.36

    Cut out your tracing. Don't forget the holes!

  5. Small 2012 06 11 17.52.44

    Pin down the sticker outline and trace the shape onto the shoulder of the shirt. Don't forget to trace the holes.

  6. Small 2012 06 11 18.00.01

    Unpin the shape and flip it horizontally. Pin it on the opposite shoulder. Then trace.

  7. Small 2012 06 11 19.26.09

    Unpin the shape and paint inside the lines. DO NOT paint in the holes!

  8. Small 2012 06 11 19.52.46

    Let it dry for a minute after you are done painting both shapes. When it's done drying, admire your work.
