here's the artist I mentioned last night, Samantha Wedelich. Michael, your idea about the "immature" bird reminded me of her art.

Arts Group: Round One
So tonight was our first meeting; and albeit small, ideas were big. Here are my notes:
- Pieces based on dreams (keep dream logs online?)
- Works in progress weeks
- Word art--collaborative pieces on a word
- Make short films
- Watch films
- Explore humor in art--irony, satire, puns, etc.
- Show/Discuss art we like/that inspires us
- Explore ways mediums lend themselves to communicating certain things
- Stream of consciousness art
- Exploration of color--how it affects moods, etc. Would like to do an interactive exhibit with a different space for each basic color and observe how it affects people.
Please comment if you have any suggestions or additions to make. Next time (2/27), we will explore these a little further and do the collaborative piece we had planned for tonight.
supplemental ideas
i had some other ideas going home tonight from the arts group. they both involve a sort of series.
1. this one would be called "diagram of an explosion" or "diagram of a color explosion" and it would be diagrammed from several different angles and stages of the explosion, the final one being one looking straight on at it. the center/smallest part of the explosion would be purple and the rim/largest part of the explosion would be red.
2. this one would be called "words on moving objects: a study of buses, cars and people." the people one was the one i thought of first and the words on this piece/series would be taken solely from the signs homeless people who are begging on street corners, and would identify whether the statement was made by a female or male holding the sign. the buses one would be words from the big advertisements on the sides of buses and would identify what kind of bus the bus was--capital metro, ut shuttle, etc. and the cars one would be words taken from bumper stickers and would identify the kind of car it is.
