FFA’s are–art that you can use! This is a very broad definintion, but I take particular pleasure in creating art that has one or more of the characteristics below:
- Utilizes fibers or materials that are found, recycled, or that I’ve been “saving” just for this project
- Makes the recipient smile
- Can be incorporated into a daily task or activity, to make it more “fun”
- Has that “wabi-sabi” feel/potential and spirit — something wonderfully familiar, worn, or exhibiting a fine patina reflecting use over time
What is fun and functional about art for you?
