Shadow Art

Apparently "shadows" are a new artistic medium. I've seen some fairly impressive examples of shadow art in the last few months. People are using shadows to:

Tell a Story


Draw a Picture/Make a Social Statement


Create Profiles/Animate the Inanimate


But these folks are just barely cracking the surface of the possibilities. Let me create some shadow art that will literally blow your mind, planetdan style:



Winner = Me

Although I think the older I get, the more I appreciate my own juvenile humor. I probably told more sophisticated jokes when I was twelve, only without the aid of animated GIFs. The only thing that's evolved on planetdan over the last thirty years is the technology. :(

Man, I wanted to do something with shadow art for my final crit in metals. I couldn't come up with anything and now I can't because who could compete with yours?

wow - kids and their crazy art projects!!

I was never that creative as an art student... Which is probably why I'm in sales now. oh, yeah.

HEY Dan - are you and the Greasy Cooters playing this year again?

Greasy Cooters are still playing, but I've bowed out the last few seasons.

I'm just too old.
