I had a difficult time placing the toys all together because I wanted the sculpture to look like an elephant’s head.  The entire base of the head is made of a metal slinky in a knot with tissue paper stuck in between it for more support.  I called this piece Happy Meal because it’s made up of all my McDonald Happy Meal toys from my childhood  :)  </p> <p>October 2011. </p>http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24929784173http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24929784173Mon, 11 Jun 2012 22:49:00 -0400elephantcolourcolourfulanimalabstracttoyssculpturerecycled art<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5hdbduAoQ1ry3xu8o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5hdbduAoQ1ry3xu8o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5hdbduAoQ1ry3xu8o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>I enjoy the repetitive pattern of lines and circles, so I decided to draw these over two pages each.  I was inspired by Marie Nouvelle:  http://marienouvellestudio.blogspot.ca/2010/11/paper-art.html </p> <p>March 2012. </p>http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24924165785http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24924165785Mon, 11 Jun 2012 21:25:00 -0400linelinesdrawingscolourblackwhiteblack and whitecirclespattern<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5a48fuDMp1ry3xu8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>A thank-you card I made. </p>http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24657375230http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24657375230Thu, 07 Jun 2012 23:26:39 -0400thank youcardcard makingcraftsgreenbluepastelstripsartdiy<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5a3zvJIzo1ry3xu8o1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>sketchbook assignment </p> <p>September 2012 </p>http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24657067465http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24657067465Thu, 07 Jun 2012 23:21:00 -0400last night i dreamed i lived in a forestwhere the wild things are<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5a34nOmyY1ry3xu8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>my friend came back from india and gave me this elephant :) </p>http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24655878643http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24655878643Thu, 07 Jun 2012 23:02:46 -0400elephanttoywoodindiahandcarvingsmallelephants<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5a28rxCUx1ry3xu8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>bracelet </p>http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24654618077http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24654618077Thu, 07 Jun 2012 22:43:00 -0400braceletbraceletsbraidchainfashionhandpearlsilverwhitepastel<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5a20rjdiE1ry3xu8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>my flower headband.  </p>http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24654291795http://melaniewongportfolio.tumblr.com/post/24654291795Thu, 07 Jun 2012 22:38:00 -0400braidfloralflowerheadbandpastelsunlightfashionpearl<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m59y35mbCB1ry3xu8o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Distillery District Downtown Toronto.
