Art Within Arm's Reach

[CHALLENGE: FRUGAL ARTIST]

"Art arises when the secret vision of the artist and the manifestation of nature agree to find new shapes." --Kahlil Gibran

Some artists don't have to look far to find the materials they need to create masterpieces. Now you can be one of them:

Step 1. Look around your desk/cubicle/room for what's handy. And we mean anything: paper clips, pencils, drink cans, paper, candy, even Rubik's cubes.

Step 2. Make art.

Step 3. Post a link to a photo of your creation (no embedding, ok?).

Step 4. Bask in your artistic brilliance. Revel in how easy and delightful the experience was. Repeat as desired.

My "workspace" to pull materials from is a hotel room so I used a newspaper image, thread/needle, and a pressed plant for mine and did it in my sketchbook I brought on the trip. :)
