Tattooed Totes • Creativity Can't Be Boxed In • Well, Sorta

4/28/2011

Okay, I couldn't help myself. Creativity can't be boxed in and I had to tattoo another tote. I had so much creative fun doing this before, as did my kids, (Link to the related posts here and here.)  that I thought you might like to try your hand at it. All you need is a Sharpie® and something that stands still. And courage. That's the biggest thing - people are afraid to make mistakes. This is one of those projects that mistakes seem to hide themselves.

So, give it a try. I've included some close ups. For the first while, just copy something from one of the images. Then, as you get going, let your inner artist loose. It might be difficult at first but keep building.

Email me an image of what your inner artist did. Or upload it to my Shannon Christensen Fine Art Facebook Page.  Do it.

Too bad. But, I am going to make some fabric and sew something.
