For this challenge, to have a "3D" spray painted object and draw on it, I chose to do a road hockey ball. Originally, I was going to do either a mug or small cardboard storage/box thingy, but I messed up on the lettering on the mug in sharpie, and chose the wrong paint for the box which was too tacky for any pens to draw on it. So, I settled for doing the ball. It's not the most exciting object, but was what I could find on short notice after two failures. I feel like I was pretty successful in the lettering, even with some mistakes in it from a combination of my shaky hands and holding a round object, along with the sharpie not drying fast enough. This caused some smudges on the ball, and some wonky letters. However, I still feel like I successfully completed this challenge as the lettering curves with the ball. I also amused myself with the phrase I chose, as I panicked and settled on an internet joke when I ran out of ideas of what could be interesting on a ball. Overall, I did have a lot of challenges with the spray painting aspect of the challenge, as well as picking the wrong pen. In the future, I think I would have chosen a different pen and maybe done a few practice designs before hand on the ball, maybe in something like chalk.
