The Colorisa

I've always wanted to do a balloon painting. A painting where I tape a bunch of paint-filled balloons to a canvas, then throw darts at them until they all pop.

Yesterday, a bunch of my friends and I got together, and, united, we decided to fulfill that dream of mine –

which turned out to be a quite mutual dream.

And so we....

taped and we...

laughed at our awful aiming

(this picture was taken 5 minutes after we first started throwing darts...)
and we...

got all excited about our first pop (!!!)
and we...

noticed that our aiming had improved significantly,
(or we were suddenly just very lucky...),
and we...

took some awesome pictures,
and we...

went a little overboard with the paint-filling,
and we...

gave up on the balloon popping thing,
and started randomly squirting the poster with paint,
and we...

laughed at the result,
especially when we realized that,
the true masterpiece was actually......

on the ground.

Nevertheless, we are all very much in love with our painting.

We called it The Colorisa.

Behold....

THE COLORISA

We joked about what would happen if we were to hang it up in a modern arts museum.

We are pretty certain that the critics will be all,

"This piece is so......... deep. If you notice the little blotch on the left, it is very evident that the artist has a tortured soul. The fuchsia stands for the disturbing dreams he's been having about mating with a pig."

We got more paint on ourselves and on the floor (and on our photographer's camera - sorry Fatima) than on anything else.

But that was the best part of it.

We're going to do another (hopefully more successful) one soon because we have new tactics lined up.

Wish us luck.

Except for the final result one. Naimah took that with her BlackBerry.
