It's Officially PIZZA!

[nbcrusader]

My son wanted to enter an art contest (anyone submitting an entry would be invited to a pizza lunch). The topic of the contest was "I am happy when...".

I had him make a list of things that make him happy, then write down what that would look like. He decided on "Pizza".

I got a slice of pizza from the local shop and let him take some pictures with a digital camera. He then selected his favorite picture and went to work using Microsoft's Digital Image Pro. He made 21 different versions of the picture and picked his favorite 4.

Here is his entry in the contest:

Actually, my wife and I showed him a number of art sources to get his creative juices flowing, including Andy Worhal. I don't have the Please single, but did show him the Pop album cover.

He just had fun playing with the filters and making different colors and contrasts.

 

[Chizip]

Now, THAT is funny!

its funny in the "we're laughing at you, not with you" sort of way

 

[Basstrap]

[IWasBored]

i really need my head checked, i'm going crazy.

 

[IWasBored]

it's just that it sounds so stupid. but i guess if everyone called soda 'pop' here, i might have picked that up as well

 

[meegannie]

A girl in my course says "wicked" all the time. She's from Leeds.

 

[Laura M]

I know a guy in my course says "wicked like" all the time hes from england somewhere

And he always says "Alright?"

 

[IWasBored]

i say alright, i don't type it too much. i'm kind of curious what words i use online and what i use when talking vs. each other. i know i've started saying 'nice' and 'sweet' outloud, and i use those online a lot...

this wicked thing though...
