Tool for great art: Empty cardboard toilet paper tube

How about putting your used toilet paper roll to artistic use?

I was just sitting there recently and one of those little tubes caused a spark of creativity.

I was looking at one and it occurred to me what a great tool it would be to create the main features of a cool painting.

I took action.

With some slight modification, it became a cool tool: A flower generator!

As I started working with it, the beginnings of my new work turned into a bigger idea that was inspired by my daughter Brittany’s love of sunflowers.

It was supposed to be daisies, but I’ve had a change of thought. What will it become?

We’ll see how it unfolds, and I’ll share it with you when it’s done.
