I love to create art from old junk. I feel like I’m giving new life to discarded objects such as these:
Here is an assemblage I made last year from Lynn Whipple’s Assemblage class:
It says, “All work – no play – makes Jack a dull boy.”
Can you find the 6 games I used to create this piece? Would love to hear from you!
Hope you find some time to “play” today!
Happy Creating! 🙂
great to do an art class on this! I like to make dioramas of found objects. Like you I look at a collection of found treasures and let my mind go empty and create a little world in a big jar. I love your ‘All work, no play..” cheers, Johanna

So happy to hear you like playing with found treasures too, Johanna! What is a diorama? I’m not familiar with this term. 😊

Checkers, Scrabble, jacks, dominoes maybe? Agh, that’s all I can find! What a cool idea though! It turned out quite well I’d say!

Oh, YAY! You did great Squid! The last 2 are Baseball (under the words, no play) and the game, Password which was probably before your time – it is the red words on white paper under the domino and checker. 😄
