200!
made for my 200th post!
To celebrate this second centennial of postings I decided to math-out the number 200 in 100 different representations.
Lots of math for lots of posts… which is true to life! Mathematics are our logical representations and explanations of the world around us. We rely on our arithmetics to relay our perceptions.
How artistically numeric. Numerically artistic? …or something.
Anyway.
Enjoy the math. Enjoy the crafts. Enjoy the next ∞.
Seusspiration
made for Dr. Seuss’ birthday
He was pretty important.
Oh Tara, My Tara
made foooooor… Tara
Actually, I drew out this 1939 Oscar winner yesterday and planned on making a few others as well (West Side Story, Silence of the Lambs, Titanic maybe…) in celebration of the Award show I wasn’t watching.
This doodle took a little longer than anticipated (I could have watched Gone with the Wind in its entirety and a half).
It was the tree… Trees always have so much going on.
I used/relied on Google images to help me capture the picturesque plantation, but only had it in my heart to sketch in a silhouetted Scarlett. I realize now I could have found time for a Rhett Butler – stepping in from the other side of the tree… returning because he DID give a damn!
Hmm… Maybe I’ll add him – probably no…
I’ll think of it tomorrow 😉
That Zombie’s Got Heart
made a parody
Zombies are cool.
This zombie is silly.
There Are Many Ways To Valentine
made for VDay
They’re constantly moving and constantly making noise, but my little class of 8-year-old boys can be wildly endearing.
This stick-figure depiction is preeeeeeeeetty much a word-for-word “conversation” I had this morning.
I replied with a big over-the-classroom-response-that-is-obviously-for-everyone-to-hear-inorder-to-teach-a-good-lesson-(and get hugs):
“Hugs are toooooootally O.K. for a present. Why… A hug is one of the best presents ever! I love hugs!”
Super cute and super-awesome hugs.
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!
In other news… today marks the 100th day of school!
I “made” the boys plant one hundred seeds…
Happy 100!
Happy Birthday Katie!!
made on Wednesday and enjoyed on Friday for a birthday today!
This funfetti favorite is usually in cake form, but I couldn’t help but dare myself to try the flavor as an ice cream – especially if it meant real life birthday smiles.
Coldstone and other ice cream parlors of the like always made me think cake batter ice cream was a big secret that couldn’t be achieved easily – a mystery of sorts for the true creamers. I found out on allrecipes that there’s really no secret at all… Though I did bump up the game by adding funfetti cake chunks – yums.
Happy birthday Katie!
And Lincoln too…
Good Luck, Dragons!
made for the lunar new year!
What’s life without dragons? Luckily in 2012 we don’t have to worry about finding out… it’s the year of the dragon!!
Gaga on Pearls, Pearls on Gaga
made for a contest!
I think this is one of the best things I’ve ever drawn. I found out about a drawing contest for a fashion magazine where Lady Gaga and her pearls (or her flipping the bird) were the challenge.
The pearls were the easy parts… the hands were killer! I needed multiple tries to steer away from alien fingers. Perspective was pretty tricky when it came down to the knees and feet…There’s a reason I started the stick figure series; they’re appendages are so much easier to fake, but I may have to go Gaga again. She’s super fun to draw.
Be GAGAwesome!
Share the Dream
made in honor of his dream
Remember it takes more than one to make it happen…
We’re all here now, we’re all capable now of re-imagining the dream Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. shared with many. No matter how big or small, make peace (peacefully) and share open-mindedness in 2012.
It’s time for humanity.
HANZZmade Doodle: welcome 2012
made for a memorable new year
My first 2012 craft comes to you from a moment that began in 2011. In the last ten-seconds before time-travel, a glittered and noisemakered crowd paused in seeing the juxtaposition of USA’s Bloomberg next to Lady Gaga in all her luster.
After getting lost in the allisrightwiththeworld moment of 00:00:00, we missed out on their big kiss.
Bummer…
Since dancing my way into 2012 during the earlier hours of January 1, I’ve commenced work on a variety of resolutions I hope bring about clarity and action in the days and year to come.
My resolutions are available for viewing in “tweet form” on, uh, Twitter.
That’s right- Tweet Tweet in 2012 – check @HANZZmade for me in mini-er form.
It’s all happening – so let it come!
Happy New Year!
