Lithium

This is a really bad reproduction. Most of the compostion is cut off. And I took it with my crappy cheap digital camera. But nevertheless here it is.
This is the Elemental table project. We had to choose an element and create a scene based off of it. I chose Lithium. After doing some research I found out it is used for treating bipolar patients, and it is flamable. And I found a list of celebrities and other people in the public eye who have bipolar disorder.
This is what became of it. The posters in the back are lost in this reproduction. There's a Guns 'n' Roses poster, Reproduction of the Scream by Edvard Munch, a picture of Ozzy, a poster of The Mask with Jim Carry, a Lichenstein painting, a Nightmare Before Christmas Poster, and a still from Gone With the Wind.
The elemental number had to be somewhere in the composition, so the three is on the pill bottle although it's a bit cut off.
Lovely Lana was my model. Doesn't she look fantastically insane?

A Day in the Life of Chipster and Simba




Based off of a story Mario told me one day when I came home from class. Apparently Simba was sleeping in the kitchen and a fly kept walking infront of him. He kept halfheartedly swatting at the fly with his paw. Finally the fly walked out of reach and he gave up and put his head back down. So the fly walked up onto his leg and he looked at it and then went back to sleep.
