For day 14 of making something every day in December, I started an art project involving cutting and painting a bunch of aluminum cans. It doesn't look like much right now:
I've done some projects like this in the past, to give you a bit of context:
I have a bunch of left over paint samples for when we painted our house, and everyone in our house/office works through a ton of La Croix, so I'm confident I'll have plenty of raw materials to work with. In any case, it's been fun to start doing some more physical art.
