twentyeightdrawingslater - part 5

it's like star wars - five parts!

yes, here is the final part of my project - i apologise terribly for it being nearer the middle of march rather than the end of february for this, but i do have a very good excuse, honest, i do! i have been designing and hand-crafting, constructing and installing the set for a new show which hopefully i can tell you more about soon, but at the moment is still under wraps....erm, that doesn't sound like a good excuse at all does it? but it is, honestly, and day 26 is a very small peek at some of the work i have been making for the secret show i can't tell you about yet.....

anyway, back to the project....

Tuesday 22nd Feb - drawing from 'iamconsumer' of a live chive plant at 99p, a pineapple at 99p, a bag of chillis at 50p, two red peppers at 82p each (all needed to make the most excellent scrumptious good for you salsa!!!! mmmmmm, yum!), 3 limes at 80p (for margaritas!), bag of 5 lemons at 99p, a cucumber at 69p and a pint of milk at 52p.

Wednesday 23rd Feb - drawing from 'iamconsumer' of a bag of baby potatoes at £1, a bag of mange tout at £1.50 (that's pretty pricy!) and a bag of 6 tomatoes at £1.

Thursday 24th Feb - a drawing from 'iamconsumer' of 2 pints of milk at 86p, a punnet of plums at £1, two onken biopots for £2, two oranges at 28p each and a bag of crispy cox apples at £1

Friday 25th Feb - a drawing from 'iamconsumer' of a box of kitty biscuits at £1.35, 6 cans of kitty food at £3.96, a large chargrilled vegetable and pesto pizza at £3.99, a packet of 4 apple and cinnamon super soft hot cross buns at £1, a packet of 6 classic super soft hot cross buns at £1, a packet of potato hoop ring styleeeee crisps at 49p, two little gem lettuces for 99p, two carrots for 26p and a very lovely jar of hot chocolate for £1.99 which is called LOVE POTION! and contains a mix of herbs (basil and whatnot!) - very tasty, and if the intention is for it to get you in the mood for the act you love the most, and that act being sleeping, then this is the right potion for sure!

Saturday 26th Feb - today's pic shows the end result of the drawing i started on this day - this was for the secret set i mentioned earlier which i can't tell you about yet! i drew the plants on photocopy paper, then cut out the paper inside the lines of the images and filled the holes with tracing paper - during the following week i constructed some bags from cartridge paper and attached the cut-out drawings to the front and added some lights, et voila...c'est ca!

Sunday 27th Feb - a drawing from 'iamconsumer' of two pints of milk at 86p, a large bag of kitty litter at £5.60, two pots of arrabbiata sauce for £3, two packets of filed pasta pockets for £3, a packet of reduced pancakes at 80p, three packets of red nose special crisps for £1 and a box of delicious dates at £1.68

Monday 28th Feb - a drawing from 'iamconsumer' of a hand-knitted grey jumper (with hood and kangaroo pocket- my most favourite attributes for a piece of clothing to possess!) from a charity shop in Partick for £3, a fish-shaped water jug from same charity shop for £4 (this joins my collection, so now i have a whole shoal of 4 of these jugs - i love them! they are for adding water to your whisky, but the most exciting thing about them is that they make noises as you pour - the shape means bubbles of air get caught in the tail end and so when you tip the jug back and forth, it glugs! cool!)........then for lunch a can of cream of tomato soup at 79p, a loaf of bread at 99p and a small austrian smoked cheese for 89p - what a good day!
