What’s Up Wednesday!
It⿿s not that easy to do ugly. I mean to do really gut-twisting ugly.
It⿿s easy to make a necklace that isn⿿t that great, but how about to make one that breaks all the rules of good design and leaves your viewer feeling squeamish? I can’t show you a picture of my entry from last year here, because I used plastic vomit as the base. If you’d like to see it, it’s on their website as a semi-finalist from 2007. It’s called “Queasy”, and you’ll have to scroll down just a bit. You’ve been warned!
The Land of Odds has been sponsoring this contest for 6 years now, so there are plenty ofwonderful?examples of ugly art to look at to inspire you. But please, enter this fun contest and see how hard it really is to do ugly! All the information you need is here. The deadline for submissions is March 15, 2008. Here’s last year’s winner to get you going:
