Macro Monday - String art

Monday, May 3

It's not midnight yet so I can still call this Macro Monday.  Kyla brought home a cool piece of art from school, but I can't remember if it has an official name.  I happened to remember a frame I had that would leave a space between the glass and the art, so I immediately photographed it and framed it.   Wow that was record time and that is why I'm documenting it here.    Most of the kids' art gets stacked in a pile and may or may not be photographed and logged digitally onto  a Picasa web album so that I can recycle the original without feeling guilty.  Here is the string from a normal angle.

That's beautiful (your photo and the string artwork). This gives me an idea: why not photograph our kids artwork and create a photobook of their best pieces? I'm thinking that this would be easier for storage etc. I know I can do something like this with iphoto or Aperture and I bet photoshop has a way to do it too. What do you think?

Very cool! Melissa got a string art (I think that's the official name for it?) kit for her birthday a few years ago, and had a lot of fun, making it.
