Earth Hour 2013: I WILL IF YOU WILL CHALLENGE
We can make a better world, you and me, starting today, starting right now. It's possible, and I know we can do it.
A fun way to get started is by taking part of Earth Hour.
I created my own I Will If You Will Challenge this year, and I'm inviting you to join me! I've already began creating a series of 50 ecological drawings - watercolor pencils and pastels on paper (book pages, actually) -; and I'll exhibit them by the end of this year. I'll donate all the money from selling my art work to WWF (I'm talking about World Wide Fund for Nature of course, not World Wrestling Federation -lol-) if you start recycling!
Click here to take the challenge!

Van Gogh's *Kawaii* Sunflowers
I
guess Vincent van Gogh’s ‘Sunflowers’
is one of my favorite paintings. The cheerful colors, the radiant energy that
blossoms from the amber petals, the golden warmth that glows so exuberantly, filling
every bit of your heart with sweet solace…
I couldn’t resist paying homage to this
fabulous masterpiece by transforming it into an explosion of kawaii
jollification!
Artist Bio:
Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890), was a Dutch
postimpressionist. Most of his life was spent in France, and his wonderful
works influenced the expressionist movement greatly.
How to draw a Chibi Sunflower
I love sunflowers! They’re beautiful, brilliant and perfectly cheerful!
STEP 1
Start by
drawing a circle. This will be your sunflower’s face.
STEP 2
Now add
some petals (around the circle). They should be large and slightly pointy.
STEP 3
Draw a long
thin line - for the stem -, and a couple of beautiful leaves, one on each side
of the line/stem.
STEP 4
Finally,
draw a small circle for the right eye and a mouth (you can draw a tiny tongue
too, if you like). Color the eyeball, making sure you leave two minuscule white
circles to make a sweet shiny look. For the playful wink, draw an inverted ‘u’ where
the left eye should be, with a fancy eyelash on its external end (to make it
even cuter!).
STEP 5
Your sunflower
is ready! Color and enjoy!

Missing Yeti Figure by Sernuretta
"Missing Yeti lives atop snowy mountains with her candy flowers. Don't you want her to visit you with a breath of candy coated air?"
Sernur
My friend Sernur designed this sweet candy lover yeti for the Pictoplasma Missing Link Research Exhibition at the Museum la Gaîté Lyrique in Paris December 2011, and it was recently chosen as the winner of ShouldBee's "Winter Wonderland" contest!
If we Pre-order at least 25 units total by February 28th, 2013, Missing Yeti will emerge from her mountain as a 3D printed 3 inch toy!
As a special gift, the first 25 people to order will receive Missing Yeti sketches drawn and signed by Sernuretta.
This lovely creature can be found in either of two varieties:
Blank White Figure - 3D printed in an all white plastic, for you to paint and customize.
Multi-Color Figure - 3D printed in full color.
