With a series of artwork created using giveaway lipsticks from cosmetic companies, Laura Osterweis explores concepts of beauty and graphic expression with an economical use of materials. Laura recalls her grandmother’s gentle urging, \u22Can\u27t you put on a little lipstick?\u22 This repeated suggestion, combined with her giveaway lipstick collection, started her thinking about how wearing lipstick contributes to our concepts of beauty. She followed her grandmother\u27s advice and put a little lipstick on watercolor paper.

I created the series, "Canʼt You Put on a Little Lipstick?" from an enormous collection of lipsticks I amassed over a number of years. But thatʼs not the whole story… my grandmother has always gently urged, " Canʼt you put on a little lipstick?" This repeated suggestion, combined with my lipstick collection, started me thinking about how wearing lipstick contributes to our concepts of beauty. Is everything more beautiful with lipstick? Questions about the endurance of my art emphasize the impermanence my medium and content. Exploring concepts of beauty and graphic expression, I crop subject matter to encourage the viewer to closely think about parts of subjects we do not often consciously examine. Working with a bright palette, I investigate how repurposed material adds to my message. Examples of my work can be viewed at www.thelipstickartist.com.

Today's challenge is to build a suitable visualization architecture for anthropomorphic conversational user interfaces, and to design believable and appropriate faceto-face interactions, including human attributes, such as emotions. An integrated approach to these tasks is presented.
