Hair Art! Play With Your Hair!!!
Friday, June 20, 2008 at 06:17PM So if you have long hair like I do...or any hair for that matter, consider playing with all that hair that falls out during a shower and make art!!! Take shower art to a whole new level!!!
So here is an image of my hair alone on the shower wall after I pushed the wet hair around to create a semblance of a figure. Using a photo editing program (in my case photoshop) I cut out the (visually noisy) tiled wall background around my hair. Then I simply played with the photo editing program as though the lines of my hair were stained glass or coloring book lines. Check out the results:
This may not your typical ''pretty' art but I love the creative exercise it offered me. You can play too - Try it!!! And if you do - let me see it I would LOVE to check it out!!!
Before you run off to play with your hair, don't forget about the art giveaway comment!!! The deadline is the fourth of July!!! Scroll down to the past post to see the prize and comment!!

Just think what I could create with the pile of hair I sweep off my salon floor each day!! haha Would u like me to mail it to you?? (I feel like I need to write 'only kidding' here, since you MAY actually desire some other hair to mess with, and sorry.. I am NOT mailing it to you!! haha
Great idea Amaretto! I will try it, although mine is not long and Very squiggly!
hope all is well xo
this is gross and cool and grossly uncool for us hair challenged folks...oh well, maybe I will have to get one of your drawings to remind me of the good ole days...

Such a creative mind! Have a great vacation. I haven't commented on your giveaway post yet, but I am working on it.

I love your piece, it has a deep and lovely mysterious feeling.
this is really interesting.

Mari this is really good
sorry that was my sister shes only 3 years old thats pretty amazing even though I don't even know what it is lol bye!!!
i always thought that the swoopy lines my hair on the shower wall made were, pretty in a way. and thought of doing just what you did, taking pic and using the lines to create art. i never did because i thought people would think its gross, and it kind of is, but its good to know that im not alone in my silly ideas.
Hello, it really interesting, thanks
