Dog Days in the rain! It was a good party, nonetheless, but what about a re-grouping for an Art Car get together? Despite the current wet, we should have some really good days through mid-October. What say you, Marnes? In the spirit of autumn and new beginnings, the creative energy of a new school year (literally!). I would love to be a part of an Art Car Team.
P.S. I still love the Monkey motif.

Slip Covers?

Check out the fabric I found to make new seat covers!

Chalk Outline idea

So, I had an idea of painting a "chalk" outline of a human figure on the hood of the car (like the chalk outlines drawn around homicide victims in the street) ... does that seem too dark? Would it look like I was symbolizing striking someone with the car? What if I styled the figure more like a Keith Haring figure?

I've placed the order for this!

if you give your friends free reign, it might be wild and fun and not so integrated - Free Spirit! You could choose the colors and shapes available so that whatever happens you have some design control.

The Sock Monkey Car particularly appeals, or Monkeys Galore, with all sorts of Monkey motifs. Hey! We're just monkeyin' around! I wonder if there are any decals one can purchase?

Here's an idea

Here's an idea. Take the Honda to a day care center. See what the kids did to this Toyota. It must have been a great time for all.

superglue all your trinkets

How about taking all the stuff you've been collecting over time and making a mosaic all over your car. Or were you hoping to still be able to use a car wash?
