Item 34 – Nose-Painting

You’ve heard of finger painting, but nose painting is the latest rage in the art world. Using non-toxic paints, “nose-paint” a lovely realistic (not abstract!) painting on a large piece of paper or canvas. Submit a photo of the finished product next to your unwashed face. Bonus points if it’s a plein air painting you make in a busy public location.

Item 21 – Matching Painting Avatars

Use the GISH APP for this item if possible. Starting on Tuesday morning at 9AM PDT change your avatar to your favorite painting by Cezanne, Monet or Van Gogh. Find someone on the planet (who is not on your team) who has uploaded the exact same painting. Don’t change your painting once you’ve picked it or plan out your painting in advance with other gishers. That’s not the point of this Item. Screenshot your profile page (and have them do the same) and then submit them side by side. Your team must have at least 6 individuals with matching paintings. (Not on the GISH App? Take on this Item on social media tagged #GISHWorkOfArt.)

Item 14 – Puffy Socks

Tom Cruise is getting up there in years— and at advanced ages, sliding on a slippery floor in your socks gives a whole new meaning to the term, “Risky Business.” But luckily, Gishers are here to help! Your mission possible: Use puffy paint to add tread to the bottoms of socks so seniors don’t slide their way into an injury at care facilities. Deliver them and show us a photo of your creation along with a gift recipient.
