<br />
I was recently in another art show of the Bagavagabonds. Their theme for this "Art Explosion" was HOME. This was an interesting theme for me because we just recently purchased our first home.<br />
<br />
I decided to take some abstract photos of items around my own new home but magnified and at interesting angles so that most are indiscernible except to me - a curtain's pattern, a small portion of a chandelier, blinds, part of a lamp base, and part of a door handle made interesting subjects. I printed my photos on transparent acetate.<br />
<br />
I wanted to juxtapose two different types of "home" in each of my pieces. Besides the physical dwelling, I also wanted to suggest our body as the most important home - the one we will never move away from as long as we are on this earth. I found a vintage book on immunology with drawings and photographs of lysosomes, cytoplasms, blood vessels and cells. I then combined my photos with these pages in interesting ways and framed them. I love utilizing vintage books in my photography work because I feel that photography in the present day has become so duplicable. I like to create work that is one-of-a-kind so that it inherently maintains its' integrity and specialness.<br />
<br />
I then took some vintage keys I have collected over the years and dipped them into matte black paint. When dry, I dangled them with invisible thread in the front of each piece to convey the idea that we all have the power to unlock ourselves if we just realize that the key to understanding ourselves is within reach.<br />

It was really cool to see my book again after it has been traveling for 8 months. They even give you a library card and you can check out the sketchbooks. Such a cool exhibit. It will live on permanently in Brooklyn, NY so if you are ever out there, you can check out my book by name! Here are a couple of shots from when I went....<br />

<br /></div>
At the end of 2012, I decided to participate in "<a href="http://www.sketchbookproject.com/projects/sketchbookproject" target="_blank">The Sketchbook Project</a>". It is a a collection of artists' sketchbooks from around the world that makes up a traveling art exhibit. It will then permanently live at the Brooklyn Art Library at the end of the tour. Come check it out if you are in any of the <a href="http://www.sketchbookproject.com/projects/sketchbookproject/tour/15?utm_source=Art+House+Master+List&utm_campaign=0a8c169ffd-REMINDER_Less_than_one_month_12_14_2012&utm_medium=email" target="_blank">neighborhoods</a> where it will be traveling to. Otherwise there is a link at the bottom of this post where you can see a digital version of the entire book.<br />
<br />
When they sent me my blank sketchbook, it sat on my desk, not started, for months. I wasn't inspired with the right "idea". I was, however, obsessed with my usual ruminating about life and death and the nuances it shadows onto my life. I finally decided to put my obsession, though starkly personal and dark, into play and use the material for my book. I incorporated buddhist funeral papers I found in Chinatown, orange ribbon, black netting (to symbolize black 1940s hats that may be worn to church funerals), my original photos cut into squares to symbolize the perfect cut-out of existence that is never the reality, my pencil and ink drawings, and my original prose printed on acetate. I actually rebinded the booklet to incorporate the acetate between the pages. Here are some images of my process:<br />

The theme of the Bagavagabonds show this time was MIGRATION. I decided to juxtapose two different styles of migration for my series of 6 mixed media pieces. I took photos that I took from a couple cities (San Francisco, Los Angeles, Boston, and Brussels) showing different forms of transportation - elevators, airports, a bike rack, a subway. a ferris wheel, and a freeway - and printed them in grayscale on acetate paper. I positioned these with original pages from a vintage book on evolution I found at my favorite bookstore (<a href="http://basquiatgirl.blogspot.com/2013/02/the-last-bookstore-in-downtown-los.html" target="_blank">my blog on this bookstore here</a>). I wanted to show the immediate literal migration of people versus longterm migration of the theory of evolution. Here some photos of my process and the final product (All my pieces sold out for a great cause!) You can see photos of the art show reception <a href="http://jenniferogren.com/migration.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>

I started several different pieces and wasn't happy with how any of them evolved. So late one night I went a few blocks to my favorite bookstore "The Last Bookstore". It is on 453 S. Spring Street. (More info here: http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-last-bookstore-los-angeles) . I try to also always pop in when I take my power walks around my neighborhood. The bottom floor has an extensive collection of interesting new books. Upstairs all the books are only $1. There are also cool art pieces all around the store, many installations made with books or pages of books flying or the tunnel or books or rainbow of colored spines. This also used to be a bank I think so the vault upstairs is now turned into their sic-fi section, appropriately dark, gloomy with a narrator's voice reading a book and a cool art installation. Here are some photos I have taken here:<br />

<span style="background-color: black; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.3em;">Then we had access to lots of sculpture materials - burlap, wire, netting, needle and thread, string, glue, cotton, fabric. I started filling the wire netting with cotton and then used a needle with string to envelop it into a flower. David made a cloud out of burlap, staples, string and cotton. We were then encouraged to leave our pieces there as part of a larger collaborative installation sculpture wall. </span></h1>

In September, MOCA Grand Ave had one of their SUNDAY STUDIOS. The emphasis was color and the interaction of colors. We started off with a discussion on one of the Rothko pieces in the museum. Then we went outside and played with colored gels, pastels, brightly colored tissue papers and all types of technicolor supplies... Here are some photos of my exploration below:<br />

<br /></div>
I am in an art show this weekend and the theme is Migration. One idea I was thinking of was to have photos that I took while in motion, using instagram. I immediately deleted each one after using the filters and saving, so the surprise would not be ruined. I since changed my idea for the show so am posting these shots I took on my walk around downtown LA and hike around Hollywood's Griffith Park here: <br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">This halloween, David and I decided to be two of our favorite singers - Siouxsie Sioux (of SIouxsie and the Banshees) and Robert Smith (of The Cure). </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The clothing part was easy - we wore black clothing that we already had (I already had the fishnet shirt and got it at www.WeLoveColors.com). I also threw on my spiky bracelet and a few more snake bracelets for good measure. I used the same black crinoline from my "Black Swan" costume from last year (blog post <a href="http://basquiatgirl.blogspot.com/2011/11/black-swan-costume-for-halloween-by-red.html" target="_blank">here</a>.) David had a black velvet blazer and a polka-dot shirt. He has found a $16 cardboard "paper jams" guitar that actually plays and also holds 3 mp3s. He put the CURE and Siouxsie songs onto the guitar.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">For the makeup, I watched a few youtube videos but then decided the best way was to try myself. I tried the eyebrows with eyeliner as the videos suggested but they did not look right and it was harder to get them even or get the right texture. Using an angled mac brush and mac matte black eyeshadow, I made the eyebrows much easier and then did the lighter Siouxsie eye, blending white iridescent shadow with some lightly applied black. I put on a little more black eyeliner that usual, some deep lipstick and was good to go.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The tricky part was the hair. We originally wanted to be this last year, but the wig we ordered online from amazon for Robert Smith was cheap and looked it and also the hair was impossible to ratt or make it stick up. We threw it in the costume box and forgot about it. After a year of being in the box, smashed into a corner, it was perfect this year when we took it out of the box. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica;">However I needed a Siouxsie wig and didn't have a year to make it. I bought a very cheap wig on amazon here(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002NVKG44/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&redirect=true). When it arrived I used hairspray, brushes and combs and even hung it upside down wet. Nothing worked since it is cheap but slippery hair. I realized it was longer than the quintessential Siouxsie so I decided to give it a trim but worried about the hair being too thin. I then decided that instead of throwing away the hair clumps from the trim, I could use them to fill out the wig and make them look ratty. After putting the wig on a mannequin head, I took each clump and put a bunch of glue on the edge to hold each one together and then place them each in the middle of the seam of the wig. The glue worked great to make it stay and give it a boost to make it stick up. If I want to use it again, it is smashed in the costume box so it will look even better next year I suspect! :o) Until next halloween.... jennifer</span><br />

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-D4D85NDLM3I/UGT4DnzeIwI/AAAAAAAACR8/4L9f11titBc/s1600/phot+o.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-D4D85NDLM3I/UGT4DnzeIwI/AAAAAAAACR8/4L9f11titBc/s320/phot+o.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">I went to an etsy craft meet-up and we made tiny paper lanterns as gift toppers which was super fun. They also discussed that it was from one of Mark Montano's craft books. The one that intrigued me was taking lucite plate holders and turning them into a chandelier. His chandelier used clear lucite plate stands and looks cool and modern but was a bit more tricky, requiring careful use of a Dremel saw (which I don't have.) I tried my own more gothic version that was easier to make and wanted to post it here.</span><br />

After I opened the packs, I realized my stands didn't have legs as long as the ones in Mark's photo so even with a Dremel, it wouldn't worked and still have enough room for the bulb. I decided instead to have the bulb at the very bottom of the chandelier. Because of this, I had to get a cord and socket set without the on/off switch because the ones with a switch didn't have a long enough space for the plate stands to adhere. (I found one on ebay since my home depot only had the ones with switches that were too close to the socket).</div>
<div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 14px; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
I went ahead and took the cord and placed it in the middle of 3 of the plate stands and used E-600 glue to hold it together. (This stuff works great but smells so use it outside! )</div>
<div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 14px; text-align: left;">

<br /></div>
<div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
I waited a an hour for it to dry, then I glued the bottom three on, one at a time, using the "feet" from the top one to line it up, keeping the cord in the middle. </div>
<div style="font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; min-height: 14px; text-align: left;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">It was ready in only a few minutes!

When I was in high school, my friend Queena took me to Melrose for the first time and introduced me to this amazing store - Betsey Johnson! As soon as I saw the hot pink shop and beautiful dresses, I was in LOVE! Back then (in 1990), they had a bargain box in the back where things were only $10-$40 dollars and since I was a sophomore in high school, that was the only spot I could afford to shop in for now. My first dress I bought was a hot pink crushed velvet dress. Here is a photo with me and two of my high school friends off for a night of dancing at the Palace for Richard Blade's KROQ night ( I am the blond on the right). </div>

Since then, I have been obsessed with Betsey Johnson! She makes the most uniquely creative, beautiful, design-inspired dresses that are perfect! Part goth, part girly, while understanding of a girl whose waist goes in but hips go out! :o) Her dresses fit me perfectly and I love that I can always buy the same size and expect the same great fit. She also uses my favorite colors a lot - black, red and hot pink (inspired my wedding colors)! Most things in my closet are now Betsey Johnson. I love her shoes (she now has comfortable boots and heels with quality leather and materials), I LOVE her jewelry, clothing, socks, tights, pajamas, and especially her dresses!! I get so many compliments on my clothes and now when friends say they like something, they don't ask where I got it - they just say "Cute - It's Betsey?" </div>

August 18, 2012....So I got to the Nordstrom at the Grove Mall in Los Angeles about 3.5 hours early. I didn't want to risk not getting to meet her. I met other fans, and since I had purchased the limited edition shoes the day before, I got into the VIP line. I was third in line. When she came out, I actually cried~! I was so happy and excited. I got to take a picture with her and she was sooooo nice. She actually talked to me for about a minute or two, even though soooo many people were waiting and there were a million people there. She thanked me three times for how dressed up I was (I was head to toe in Betsey Johnson from my cat ring to my socks and heels!). I told her I was so thankful to her and I love everything she does and I also thanked her for inspiring me to be myself. She was so gracious and kind and super cute! She looks great! She is so tiny - like 5 feet tall and I am tall so I had to crunch down for our photo! She was really sweet and I am so glad I got to go to this event. It is now crossed off my bucket list!</div>

When I had heard her stores were all going out of business, I was so sad. I immediately went to one and bought out the store, well a portion of it. They ran out of bags so I had to just carry armloads of clothes. I never spent that much at once in a shop and felt a little guilty but I knew this was my last chance to stock up on clothes for the rest of my life! Here is a photo of that!</div>

Over the next few weeks I went to several of the stores and bought some pieces I missed. I wanted a piece of furniture too but they were all sold out in every store. Luckily my husband diligently looked on craigslist until he happened upon the Betsey Johnson stylist selling not only the couch but also 5 chairs!!! He got it for me!! I was so surprised and excited!</div>

Making A Chandelier Out Of Cardboard.</h2>
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E5yphPT1eXU/T_0qGYjpIFI/AAAAAAAAAoQ/XVcDGH_a6Xw/s1600/chandelier.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E5yphPT1eXU/T_0qGYjpIFI/AAAAAAAAAoQ/XVcDGH_a6Xw/s320/chandelier.JPG" style="cursor: move;" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
Sometimes I wish I didn't rent an apartment and actually owned something, if only to be able to hang up a beautiful chandelier! I am obsessed with them. I think they make any place look fantastic! One day I hope to have one in every room in my house! Until then, I have decided to make some low-cost, easy-to-hang- up chandeliers to use now instead of waiting for the future... This first one I tried, I saw on a blog on etsy.com (You can see their version here: http://www.etsy.com/blog/en/2012/how-tuesday-cardboard-chandelier/)<br />
<br />
I have a few tips and tricks to make it easier, so here are my instructions:<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12px;"></span><br />
<div style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 12px;">1. Print the chandelier templates (below). Use an xacto knife and scissors when possible and a cutting mat to cut them out. I used thick cardboard, from a large box one of my neighbors was throwing out (a plus of apartment renting). It is much harder to cut than thin cardboard but it looks better when you are done because the chandelier stays straight and doesn't bulge or bend like with flimsy cardboard.</span></div>

2. One much easier thing that etsy didn't mention was it is much easier to make both sides of the chandelier template on paper, and then tape together, then tape them in place and use a pencil to trace around one whole side at once. They tell you to cut out one template, then just flip the template over for the mirror image, but the paper is super easy to cut with scissors and makes life way easier down the road - remember this chandelier has to line up EXACTLY so the slots go in. This helps. Then just replace the bottom portion for the second side. Then all 4 of your candle areas will be exactly the same.</span><br />
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;">3. Cut out the entire two pieces. I used a metal ruler to do all the straight lines - way easier.</span><br />
<div style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: left;">
4. Paint both sides and edges of the cardboard silhouettes with the foam brush. Let dry and paint one more coat. I also used spray paint afterwards because the sides of the thick pieces of cardboard are hard to get the brush into and I didn't want any brown to show. You might try using board that is already black if you don't mind buying it. Thicker would be better, maybe foamcore if the foam center is black too.</div>

5. Slide the two pieces together where the slits are cut, aligning the pieces perpendicularly<span class="Apple-style-span">. Put in the candelabra base socket set (I got mine on amazon for cheap and free prime shipping). Make two holes with a hole punch at the top (easier than etsy's dowel and hammer - I don't have a dowel anyway). Cut a piece of floral wire with wire cutters or scissors and put through holes at top (I only did one top set of holes and it was enough and less ugly with too much wire) and also wrap it several times around the socket wire to hold it in place.

TEMPLATES- click on these to make them larger - they should take up almost an entire 8.5" x 11" paper. Print 2 copies of each. Remember the base is the only part that detaches from the template and switches to the opposite slot cut between tracing the two pieces. (All these templates are from the etsy site but I put them here because many people had a hard time downloading them from there but I give full credit to etsy on this page: <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-size: small; font-weight: normal;">http://www.etsy.com/blog/en/2012/how-tuesday-cardboard-chandelier/)</span></h2>

Cyanotypes at MOCA</h2>
<br />
I tried the Sunday Studio art class at MOCA Los Angeles last weekend. They have a tour of the exhibit and then a hands-on art project that compliments the exhibit for MOCA members. For the current show at the Geffen, LAND ART, we had an interesting tour followed by making cyanotypes. I hadn't made one since I was young so this was a fun project.<br />
<br />
It has a few simple steps:<br />
1. I chose some objects - tree needles, and crystals.<br />
2. I made a drawing with dark black grease pencil (or sharpie marker) onto clear acetate.<br />
3. I laid a glass panel down, then my sun print paper, then the needles and drawing, then the 2nd glass panel, and then the crystals on top (they won't blow away so heavy objects can go on top).<br />
<br />
You can get sunprint paper here (http://www.amazon.com/TEDCO-Sun-Art-Paper-8x10/dp/B003JJBLC0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1341858564&sr=8-1&keywords=cyanotype+paper)<br />
<br />
4. Then I laid the whole thing in the sun for about 5-10 minutes. The longer you leave it, the darker you get.<br />
5. Then I washed off the paper in a water bath and held to dry. I originally hung it up but I didn't want the paper to wrinkle so decided to carry it around with me when I went back into the museum.<br />
<br />
I am going to have to get some paper myself and make more of these at home!<br />
<br />
Here are some photos of my art piece...<br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been contemplating changing my branding and I was recently inspired while I spent two weeks in Paris, France. I was in the Marché aux Puces St-Ouen de Clignancourt, the antique market. Among the gorgeous furniture pieces, vintage cameo jewelry, art deco silver dishes, and toys from yesteryear, I came across some amazing original letterpress letters in a little shop called Tombees Du Camion (http://tombeesducamion.com/), meaning </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Goods Fallen Off the Back of a Truck". I</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> spent about an hour picking out my favorites for each letter of my very long name. I just starting photographing them and will be updating my website and business cards soon. Here are some photos of my antique-market-escapade:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;">Halloween Costume. Black Swan - DIY</span></h2>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;">I thought I would share my Halloween costume this year and also how I made it in case anyone needs tips for next year! I wanted to continue my feather obsession and decided to be Black Swan, the goth ballerina from the Natalie Portman film. I was also inspired by the MOCA show of the real costumes earlier this year ( http://www.moca.org/audio/blog/?cat=79 ). I used items that I already had except for one $15 short tutu that I used to make my petticoat stick further out. I started with the following items:</span></div>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
1. a corset I had in the back of my closet (I turned mine inside out so it would be more black). </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
2. two feather pads or lots of black feathers </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
3. feather boas - one or two black ones - they can be old or falling apart - mine were and it adds to the distressed character.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
4. black petticoat or black tutu or both. </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
5. safety pins</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
6. needle and thread</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
7. tiara</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
8. some type of black necklace or brooches or jewels </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
9. jewels for the corset</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
10. tights and ballet shoes or black heels and satin ribbons to use instead</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
11. black and white eye makeup (both eyeliners and shadow work best)</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
12. birdcage french veil netting or tulle and two bobby pins</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gTTxNDemZKo/TtQhY5K3KnI/AAAAAAAAAaA/2w92YtYjIT4/s1600/IMG_5636.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gTTxNDemZKo/TtQhY5K3KnI/AAAAAAAAAaA/2w92YtYjIT4/s400/IMG_5636.jpg" width="400" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0402Ir7SwNg/TtQhaWR7OtI/AAAAAAAAAaI/LJ6LH82I0GA/s1600/IMG_2774.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: left;"><img border="0" height="158" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-0402Ir7SwNg/TtQhaWR7OtI/AAAAAAAAAaI/LJ6LH82I0GA/s200/IMG_2774.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="200" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kQsnKVHolcY/TtQhbmuX2DI/AAAAAAAAAaY/FRmYKTQzT6s/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-11-28+at+3.30.50+PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kQsnKVHolcY/TtQhbmuX2DI/AAAAAAAAAaY/FRmYKTQzT6s/s320/Screen+shot+2011-11-28+at+3.30.50+PM.png" width="110" /></a><br />
I used the needle and thread to sew jewels on one side and the feather pads on the other side of the corset chest area. Then I took the feather boas and safety pinned them onto one side of the petticoat. I pinned them from the underside so the pins didn't show. I then made up my eyes like the character, after getting ideas by watching several youtube tutorials. I found that patting black and white eyeshadows over white and black penciled lines, helped the makeup stay all night. I used the MAC angled eyeshadow brush to achieve sharp lines. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
<br />
Then I used two overlapping bobby pins to adhere the french veil birdcage netting over my face, right above the center of my forehead. Then I placed on my goth tiara. I used an old tiara I had that was silver with a few fake diamonds but then I took an everyday necklace that was black and used wire to wind it around the tiara so it would have height and the black goth-y look. If you don't already have one, you can probably find something cheap at either H & M or Forever 21. You can also pin brooches on your tiara or use them instead of sewing on jewels on the front of the corset.</div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; text-align: left;">
I got some great reactions at the parties I attended, all for a costume that cost me under $15. I ended up wearing it three different nights that week! :o)</div>

You can see photos of the event <a href="http://jenniferogren.com/california.html">here</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This blog illustrates my artistic process behind the pieces. I started out with three metal pieces and drilled holes into the tops. Then I drew the figures with a black prismacolor pen. I cut out sections of old maps of California for wisps of hair and adhered them to the pieces. Then I painted on the metal using black acrylic paint and spraypainted with silver spray paint to push the acrylic into the desired shape while it was still wet. I wrote original quotes onto the work and tied black velvet ribbon through the holes to hang. Enjoy.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
