Orney Awards 07


Every year for the past 5 years a lot of the guys in this picture put on an awards ceremony for Christmas ornaments. Every year the popularity grows bigger therefore making the competition harder. Each person who goes makes a Christmas ornament and submits it to be judged, and then they hold this awards ceremony to give out trophies to the winners. Well me and my roommate Jasen decided that we were going to submit one. And well....
consequently we took 1st place. This is us with the first place trophy. As well as Maloni and my other roommate Eric. Eric is one of the people in charge of the awards and well... Maloni didn't win. Also me and Jasen were the first men to have actually won 1st place, that was pretty cool.







This is the ornament that we made. The theme of the ornament is A Christmas Story. Thats right there is an iPod in there playing the movie and a clay re-creation of the leg lamp with a working light in it. There are some other additions to it to give these people some culture, Starry Night by Van Gogh and on the other wall behind them (not seen in the picture) is the Three Musicians by Picasso. I painted Starry Night and Jasen did Three Musicians. Needless to say, a lot of effort went in to this as it paid off as can be seen above.
