Next experimental project

After I played with rolling car parts in ink and then on paper, I was told to make hybrids of all of my favorite vintage things, most of which are furniture pieces.  I began by cleaning my entire apartment to make it suitable for photographs.  I then photographed each and every vintage item I owned and then did research on items I do not own to gather an image library.  I presented my findings, as well as a very ridiculous list of my favorite things to my class.  It was then suggested I marry each item together and create pieces using each item.  
This is the front of my list, including doodles and a glob of metal flake nail polish.

Back of my list.

From here, I began sketching these vintage hybrids using items I own and love.  It was suggested that I do this because my professor overheard me speaking to my friend about some vintage furniture.
















I did about 50 of these, so this is a very condensed sample of the sketches I have done.  I want to take this to a different place, either making these images larger and drawing them with much more detail, or maybe going very kitschy and cutting paper and making them look like scrapbook items.  I have not yet decided.
