Reminder: Tentacle/Tarzan is due tomorrow…

Good day people… we have about 24 hours or so, give or take some hours until this week’s art challuunge is due.  Have you begun to think about what you will do? Will you collect all the empty toilet paper rolls and create something unique and fun?  Will you pick all the weeds in your front yard (screw the back, no one see’s it anyway) and create a dandelion sculpture?  How about photoshopping some existing photos on the old interwebs and making something new?  What ever it is you do, it’s exactly what you do… so get on out there, friends, and draw or photograph or whatever, and submit something this week for TENTACLE / TARZAN. 
Thank you, drive thru.

And the winner is…

We here at the Random Words Art Challuunge sincerely hope you had a great holiday weekend, we know we did.

Ok, folks this week’s winner is: Andrew Johanson.  Dear Andrew, If you would be so kind as to submit two random words by this Friday, we would be ever so grateful. 

As for this week’s words:
Tentacle / Tarzan
have you thought of anything unique, substantial or partial?  If not, you may want to head on over to the ol trusty Google dot com and go to the images tab.  It’s a good time for all and can really expand your ideas and even inspire new ideas.  See you all this Friday!
