Southsea free art exhibition - Someone has me!

Yay!

Someone is the proud owner of one of my doodles.

Taken at the It's Yours - Take It event held last weekend in Southsea.
Looking on the Flickr group everyone who attended came away with something and being part of it is great! Kudos to My Dog Sighs for organising the event, I am pretty sure that the next one will be tip top as well.

Card Flame WIP - Waiting for the final piece to dry


The scan is pretty ropey but conveys what I have just done - the paint is barely dry, and could do with a few more coats to erase the marker outlines - The concept seems to have worked out okay in 3d so I just need to find an application for it.

Card Flame WIP - Not enough card to finish the job!


It's not exactly what I had planned but I found some free time in between ironing, searching for a new home and having a tasting for my upcoming wedding and have started the process of changing a Moleskine doodle to a full fledged piece of art.

My usual source of material, cat food boxes, was the place to start along with the trusty Sharpie. using the original Moley doodle as a rough guide I marked out the outline the cut around with a scalpel.

Updated Still no movement with this, With a wedding and a move on the horizon I am finding very little time to get anything completed.

The various pieces of card are then stacked in a 3D'ish manner - I am hoping that this turns out okay.

I just need to get my Cats some more food so I can pillage the packaging to complete this first stage. then I can look at painting, then sticking, the finished pieces together.

Updated. Thanks to my extremely greedy cats I have all the pieces I need. Painting should start pretty soon, followed by assembly.

Free Art - Westbay, Bridport 2


Card Free Art

So, there I was at the launderette washing some clothes when it hit me.

Reaching into my bag I pulled out this freshly prepared face and stuck it in one of the dryers. I think that it was taken, I would like to think so, but it probably ended up in the bin, being on a holiday park I think that whoever was going to dry their clothes wouldnt be the sort of person to appreciate Guerrilla art in their whites!

I was there, so maybe.......

During my week long holiday to Westbay, Bridport. I thought I might share some art goodness with the locals, and holidaymakers.

In the holiday park phonebox I put these two creations up. When I came back the cardboard had been taken but the driftwood guy was still hanging around.

So, to someone at Westbay near Bridport, Devon, thank-you and enjoy!

Free Art Friday

The name says it all.

Artists create pieces of art which they then spread around their town, city or neighbourhood in the hope that someone will pick it up and offer it a home.

The main aim is to place soemthing unexpected which will surprice, delight and make the finder feel good and maybe just to challenge the publics perception a little bit. A lot of the artists recycle materials or use found opbjects with which to embelish.

I have left a few pieces lying around for people to stumble upon, I hope that these found good homes, if not I still think it is a valuable idea as otherwise my home would start to overflow with work
