Dear Art Challuungers…

Time to grab a pen, or pencil, or crayon, or quill, or some other writing utensil, and do up a submission for HELICOPTER / HIGHLANDER.  I mean if you aren’t doing anything for lunch other than eating some food, why not bust out a sketch or two?  You could even visit the interwebs and Photoshop yourself a funny or exciting picture.  Take that napkin that you used to dab the barbeque sauce from the corner of your mouth and fold it into a creative origami piece.  Instead of spitting out your gum today, why not mold it into a master piece sculpture that the whole world will envy.  Put that copy machine to work and photocopy various body parts and draw over the tops of them.  Hell, the possibilities are literally endless, so get on out there and have fun with it!  See you on Friday, around 2-ish…

And this week’s winner is…
