Screwed Art

Have you ever had one of those days where things just didn't work out no matter how well you know you are at doing them or no matter how many times you check your work to make sure you're doing it right?

Today is that day for me. Why?

Well, today was suppose to be the day where I figure out how to cut out my felt fabric in order to cover the surface of my puppet. But it became increasingly clear that I didn't know what the hell I was doing. Thankfully, no cuts were made in the actual fabric.

I can't say the same thing about the foam board. I decided to try and mount the poster I order from Kinko's, but ultimately learned that the scale of the job is too big for my small reach and limited space in the studio now. After screwing that job up, I called a local art store for price quotes. Seems they will do the job for me if I buy their $30 standard plexi-glass frame for only $5 more. Might as well drop the cash for the job rather than botch it up again.

Hopefully I'll be in the swing of things by next week.
