Yarn Bomb's Away!!!

It's been a while since I last posted on here but just thought I'd put a lil one out to say that I'm working on my knitting (oh it sounds soooo sad lol) and I think i'll be having a go at this new Yarn Bombing movement pretty soon!!!

I'll keep the updates coming :)

February Artwork

Here's some of the pieces I've set my hand to recently. I've been getting back to the 3D work and playing around with vinyl figures.

This little guy is a slight variant on my earlier Wax Dunny's. Rather then using a white based colour I have gone with a 'Baby Pink' hue to girlie it up a bit. He has been commissioned as a birthday present and will soon be going off to his new life lol.

Droid is his name and he is based on the well know Google Android symbol. The base figure has been created by the fantastic Andrew Bell and I have taken this figure and added my own colourful, waxy touch to it.

Here is my follow on Dunny from 'Mr Paper'. I have collaged the entire of the figure this time rather then leaving the ears and arms blank. I really love the effect that this creates and I want to explore it further, perhaps by using different types of paper or even trying a rainbow effect; made up of little pieces of different coloured paper blending and going down the body from ears to feet.

Beetroot Tree Exhibition 2011

Sadly that time of year has come and (almost) gone again. I have had a couple of pieces up at the Erewash Open Art Exhibition held at The Beetroot Tree Gallery and a big thank you to all those that went to see the show! There is one day left and then its all over until next year.

As promised here are some pictures of the work I submitted, I went for a variety of different pieces to show my range and also because I feel its more fun then putting in three paintings that are pretty much the same. Enjoy!

Sorry if the photo's are a little blurry, my camera is on the fritz! Aaarrgggg!
