Farts and Crafts

My friends and I finally started going to the gym.

I mention for two main reasons.

First, I have a giant blister on the bottom of my right foot, it literally covers 1/2 of my heel. I know, that's gross right? Well I was limping all day Saturday and Sunday so I think you deserve to share in on my misery.

Secondly this gym was where I started off on my new art project.

Wait for it...

Here's the dealio; I've been making paper cranes since elementary school so they feel a little ho-hum to me now.  They're just something I do in church or in class when I'm so bored even doodling won't cut it.  They aren't pretty, they aren't art.

Except they could be.

My plan is to make 1000 paper cranes, and to create art projects along the way.  Initially I'll  merely leave these origami creations around campus and take artful pictures of them, but I already have a few fancier ideas stewing up in my head.

Honestly my goal is to make somebody stop and notice something that could be pretty if they just took the time to think about it.

We'll see how far I get before BYU dings me for littering

  1. Cool, kinda like a where's waldo of origami cranes. Can't wait to see all the fun places they can go.

    Oh, and how about posting a photo of that blister?

  2. I was glad to see the last sentence at least you are aware that they might not see the art if there are 100's of them laying around.
