Art Ambushers Reshape Skyler

on December 5, 2012 by Sally Sally in Comic / Visual Art, Comments (2)

The newly-revived Art Ambush convened for its second meeting on Monday, December 3rd. Some twenty-five people attended, producing twelve pieces of art, three of them by fluffy. The week’s theme was “What Should Skyler Be Next?“, a reference to his being changed to a deer by Beltrami, balloon dragon.

fluffy, critter, produced two drawings and a musical piece, Valleyminks, minks, produced a sculpture, while Xor, boolean; Pi, vixen; Mavra, centaur; Sally, velociraptor; Chanspot, coffee fossa; Carl, owl; and Serval, guest, each produced a single drawing. Skyler, deer, seemed pleased, but somewhat taken aback by the variety of ideas on display.

A good time was had by all, and the Ambush adjudged a success. The next Ambush will meet Monday, December 10th, at 7pm at Bristles and Pixels, luge N1 E8, B.

Revived Art Ambush Kicks Off with Repurposed Leftovers

on December 2, 2012 by BunnyHugger BunnyHugger in Comic / Visual Art, Events, News, Comments (0)

The newly-revived Art Ambush kicked off on Monday, November 26, with a theme appropriate to the aftermath of the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday: repurposing leftover food into a non-edible use. Participants gathered at the Bristles and Pixels studio were given thirty minutes to create a work of art (visual or literary) according to this theme.

Chanspot, coffee fossa; Austin, coati; Sally, velociraptor; Crow, metahuman; fluffy, critter; and Mavra, centaur, all tried their hands (or paws or mitts) at the theme. The most popular way to repurpose food was to use mashed potatoes as spackle, since both Mavra and fluffy arrived at this idea.

The Art Ambush is an old SpinDizzy event that had fallen by the wayside in recent years. Garrison, skunk, is responsible for its revival and hosted Monday’s event. Claude (LOLcat) and Sally provided technical assistance. The current plan is to hold the event weekly. Spectators and participants alike agreed that the event was fun, and Sally said, “It’s gone off well, and I’m glad to see it return.”
