Hi,
It is quite common in early art classes to have pupils take an every day object and turn it into something else. So I thought, "what's good for them is good for us".
Here is a pair of scissors - what will you make with them? I've made it easier this week by putting them on transparency so you don't even need to cut them out.
The “rules”:
To download the image below at 3000 x 2000 pixels with an embedded ICC colour profile (sRGB), hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right. Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).
When posting back your image – please use the Blue reply button in this first post. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.
Have fun.
Dave

Trevor, thank you for the kind words and for the suggestion. Yes, some highlights would help, I just didn't have any more time to spend on this one.

Was going to try a scissor hands haircut. I only got up to a scissor hand.
Maybe will have another go tomorrow.

Although it appears calm now, the word on the street is that the rumble is about to begin.

Very clever Jane. Shall we use that game to decide tomorrows starter image?

Great idea, Dave. Shall we select a time and then post our responses simultaneously? 😊

Very good! But, shouldn't "paper covers rock"?

Rafael, that will come later. There is going to be a terrible spat — they'll wallow this way and tumble that, in the awfullest way you ever saw!

Jane,
Has anyone ever pointed out that the scissors have an unfair advantage (although the rock is certain to enjoy its ultimate win once the present pandemic is over)?
