So those of you who read my update from the 24th of April (update 1) know about the glass portrait my friend and I gave to MCR. If you don’t you may want to go read about that.

 

Well the reason I did that was because my friend (who’s name shall not be mentioned) lived one of those MCR saved my life stories, and so MCR gave me my friend back and I guess I though on some level I should give them something. Because even if they don’t know what they did for my friend (which in turn helped me because I was so wrapped up in worry about them and the fact that they were struggling) they should still get a thank-you. Since glass art is my forte I decided I would make them a portrait (not really more like a carton picture) of them out of glass.

 

I ran into a problem when I realized that no glass would be able to make drawings so I went and found the glass based paint pens to do the actually people part of the picture. Only problem is I’m a horrible drawer. So I approached my friend Kayte and enlisted her help. She drew an original sketch of what the picture should look like and we went about together making it into glass. We got to the concert it eventually made it to them (all the details of the concert are in yesterdays update) and so on.

 

Well it’s been almost a month and I keep thinking about that portrait. I tend to take ideas and run with them places I probably should up (since I always end up getting my hopes up only for them to be smashed to bits) but I really want to carry this idea out.

 

Every time I go see MCR in concert I’m going to give them another piece of my art (this fully mine, no drawing help from anyone). I’ll sign my name to these pieces but at this point I don’t think I’m going to give them any notes with these pieces.

 

So yeah is this idea creepy? I want to know because I don’t want to do this and have the guys of MCR be like “Who is this crazy chick sending us this glass stuff?” or whatever. Let me know.

 

 

 

Oh and if you have any ideas for a design I should do (on a bowl or plate of flat piece of glass or whatever) let me know at an email address I made specifically for this idea.
