August 2010 new art-o-mat boxes

Well, it's time to start a new batch of art-o-mats. This time around I purchased the brown ready-made boxes and I made stamps, so that with each box a new blue box falls from the white grid and the black filled in square on the white grid tells you what number box you have. The lenticulars are miniatures of my larger lenticulars, 60lpi, and are almost all 3-D. They are mounted on thick black foam core with a little hook on the back for hanging. More pics will follow as I get them finished. Let me know when if get one.

Here is a short video of the lenticulars I am making for this new batch. Sorry--It's a bit dark so lighten it up in your viewer.

third batch for art-o-mat

I am sending off a third batch of art-o-mat boxes. The outside, like this pic above, is made with recycled boxes (cereal, tissue, supplies, etc.) and screen sprayed with metallic paints. I wanted to stay w/ the recycled boxes but continue to make abstract the color, forms, and shapes. The spray dots helped to make that happen.

I received another art-o-mat green card, so I am finally posting the last batch of boxes I had sent them (completed last August.) See in the following entries.
Comments are welcome!

I believe both of these boxes contain the lenticular pictured below. This lenticular flips and the gardenia was from my mother's garden. The boxes have some collage work--painted gold on the raisin box, for example.

I like this one. I did very little with
the surface because the vinyl box
covering was nice and the 3D lenticular
just suits the Quaker.

Some fish fillet with filigree. A lenticular is inside.

Some corn flakes. Let me know if you got one.

These are continuing the recycled cereal, etc. boxes theme.
Some gold leaves and various collage pieces added on the surface.

Leave a comment if you purchased this box.

This and a number of boxes to follow are from my second
batch for art-o-mat. I'll post the rest soon.

Another view of the box described below.

Here is the first of the second round of art-o-mat boxes to be shipped out.

These boxes are made from recycled larger boxes and I am doing a bit of collage/painting to the surface.

The lenticulars are in a small metal frame now and they can be hung in any manner (even upside down and something hung off of it, if you like.)

My second art-o-mat green card(s) came in.

Looks like my inventory is out so I better

get cracking!

I am continuing with the lenticulars but the boxes are going to be a bit different now--going to collage some together.
