Clicker Control
Mr. demando, always getting his way. Who controls the clicker in your house?
Of course a mouse wouldnt want to watch Cats!
They are everywhere. Call the exterminator.
They are even poping out of the base.

I teach a concept called storylining and is very effective at transforming furniture into functional art. It involves creating a composition using basic storytelling techniques of character, conflict, resolution. Here the demanding mice (characters) are not too happy about what is on the television (conflict). So they seize the remote and watch their favorite flick "Willard" (resolution).

This piece uses a classic egg & dart motif for the board.
