oh yeah, she was taking us over, oh yeah, it was the start of the summer
well ppvw is taking me over and it's actually the end of the summer, but song lyrics in posts never go astray. umm, it's even harder doing this workshop and working then it was doing uni and working, but it's heaps of fun. everyone should check out the website and maybe come down for an hour or two later this week or next week.
i suggested a while ago on my blog that we should have some sort of communal graffiti system going to decorate the corridors, maybe pint by numbers or something. well, i've come up with a not paint by numbers system. the idea is to just basically cover the walls in paint of various colours, so it looks crazy and clashes, and is totally random, everyone could bring old leftover paint from home to do it. then we make patterns on the wall with masking tape, lines and stuff. we then paint over everything in white, and peel off the tape, revealing rainbow coloured lines and pictures. it means that we bring the input of a whole bunch of people while still retaining the final say as to what looks good. its like in kindy when you colour in a sheet of paper with rainbow pencils and then cover it wih black crayon and scratch pictures into it. i was thinking maybe the lift doors on level 5. what do you people think???
I like it. You'll have this dodgy period of multi coloured paint until it's masked/painted/peeled transformed into not so dodgy.
Good idea Liam
i love the idea. when do we start?
if we work out what the masked design is gonna be before we start, we could restrict the crazy rainbow madness to those areas and save a hell of a lot of paint
that's one of the cleverest things i've heard today. it means that the patterns might look a bit forced though. i've got ppvw in the mornings all those days, but you guys can sure do it without me
