Everyday items

So this little collection here was some of the best pictures I took when I was completely bored. I don't know if I would say they were "good" per se, but I definitely enjoyed taking them, and they don't look all that bad. I like to think of it as... interpretative art.
This one is the only one in this batch I'd say was a complete success. If you can't quite see it, it's a heart shape using a Boondoggle. I had some fun undoing the boondoggle I had made at camp, and then finished it off with a little bit of art. I like the focus change, but I especially like the point of view. There's something slightly surreal about seeing something at such a flat angle, that makes me just so HAPPY! Plus, it was fun to create, so who's complaining?

So this one, I was trying to almost make it as though I was looking up at a long ladder or trail, but as a pencil, but it didn't quite work. I've included it because I still like it, I just can't particularly think of any reason why. I just do.
This next one is the exact same set-up as the last one, but from a different angle. I think this is slightly easier to look at, but it shows a cool colorful design of the pencils. Again, there aren't many "techniques" I used here, I just thought this little structure looked cool!
I've wanted to do this for ages. And I finally did. Or... tried to. Again, this one didn't quite work right, the lighting is a little strange, and you can see bits and pieces of my bedroom, the folds on the book aren't equal... yeah, a little strange. But I still decided to give it a go, and I don't know, maybe you guys can find some brilliant reason why this is good!

This is another one that... seemed better in my head. Ok, now that I think of it, all of these did. (except the first one... that was awesome!) It's a tiny box-design with the sharpies, and I liked the angles... ok, I can't justify it. It's here because I say it is.
This was... interesting. I really wanted to somehow make something that was insanely boring, relatively interesting. Well, I succeeded at "interesting" but not sure if that's good or not. I wanted to use a strange angle, dull background, and differing lines to create a dizzying effect, (like the M&M on another page) but now... it looks a lot like a pipe on the ceiling of a parking garage. Which it is. Again, not quite sure why, but... sure. It's fine. It's a very important pipe. It's shiny. That's why.



To be honest, my genuine reason for creating this page is because I was bored, and this was fun. But to be more... philosophical, I think this shows how the simple things in life, (or your house) can be a ton of fun! They can make a dark day bright, and show you just how much there is to be grateful for! I can personally think of many other ways to interpret this type of art, but I'll leave that to you. Tell me in the comments what you think this means, or just which one is your favorite!
