Bugs

January 2002, I created bugs out of found objects as part of my interim project at Birmingham-Southern College.  The bugs are made out of the apparent objects, including a french fry, cracker, fortune cookie, and cough drop and material, wire, and lots of fingernail polish.  The characters created of the bugs were so intriguing that I also made a book illustrating interactions and adventures of the bugs.  The hardback book was entirely made by myself, and the illustrations and stories were meticulously xeroxed on a copy machine-before I had my own scanner.  This project earned me the Best of Show award at the 2002 Juried art show at Birmingham-Southern College.
