. can you feel the sunshine? does it brighten up your day? . hey.
i love making badges at cons. its a fun and inventive experience for me.
i remember being my first con, making my "PEZ" badges for the first time. those things bloody took off! then the "Hello, my name is" badges. and the HUGEASS graffiti badges. and the bobbles...and the cereals.
i've done so many variations its kinda crazy. i'm not really one to stick to standard badges. i HAVE them, if they're wanted, but i really like making crazy, themed badges.
i DO remember however, a couple of months after my first con though...
one of my exs asked me "if it was okay" if his new friend made PEZ badges too. i mean, not like i could say 'no' because its not like its a 'copyrightable' type thing, but that didnt make it a good thing to ask for. it was a bit... IRRITATING.
i work hard on the ideas i make to try to give a breath of fresh air to a sometimes stale/bland market. if it works, cool. if it doesnt, i'll try something new. i just dont like it when "something works" and i see the korean knock-off being sold back to me the next day.
there IS something to be said about "universal consciousness" and how "nothing is original anymore". hell, i've had ideas at the same time as others and they just happened to pull it off first. *shrugs* it happens. but its kinda like going to prom with the same dress on as 3 other girls. someone has to go change.
*munches on some cereals and drinks a juice box*

it's more like seeing the dress your friend bought for the prom, than asking where she bought it so you can wear the same thing.

sometimes i swear i am utterly plugged into the universal consciousness cause i will come up with an idea and start to work on it only to suddenly see someone else beat me to the punch cause i work slow. then i never finish cause the people that usually beat me to the punch are the awesome art gods and i hate being told i was a copy cat.
