# I've got another couple of 9' x 6' jigsaw pieces here for my mum's community art project.
I need to bung some art on 'em fairly soon.
Got some acrylic paint, some pencil crayons and some coloured ultrafine pens.
Any (family-friendly) ideas? Anyone?

# Family friendly? Like the bus stop one.

I'm going to bed now, and listening to Elvis McGonaghall on iPlayer. Ta-ra!
edit: Bollocks. I confused Elvis McGonaghall with Hovis Presley.
Hovis Presley was funny, but is unfortunately dead and not currently on iplayer.
Elvis McGonaghell sounds like a git so far.

# I like it.
But please bear in mind I can barely draw and can't paint for shit.
So that's a tricky proposition.

# Hmm... maybe there's a way you could trace or lightbox it?
Or alternatively, your own take on a famous poster or album art?
Like the KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON one.

# Ooooh, nice.
But now I'm thinking along the lines of doing it with the backdrop of a dreary multi-storey car park rather than a beautiful world heritage site.
This is, after all, a community art project. And I live in a staggeringly dreary 'community'.

Cheers for the ideas, though - they've got the juices flowing. And dribbling.
Gurgling.
Belching.
Squirting.

But I don't want to demoralise my mum's community art friends. Some of 'em are very sensitive.
