A house thats not there anymore...

Yet another beautiful building has been torn down in my local area. I managed to get some snaps before it was completely destroyed, may beautiful buildings forever live on in our memories...

This first picture is a brilliant example of what's capturing my attention when looking around derelict buildings...







And some originals:




I do love this picture, but I hate what it is. 


HGT at VOLSKFEST

Not long ago I was approached by the AWESOME collective HGT. They were looking for new artists from across the board to work with them on an up and coming project at Volksfest in plymouth. Over the last few months we have been working together to create goods from arts and crafts to illustration and fine art to sell and display at the festival. We managed to pull it off this weekend, check out the photos...

Some of the things I made



Choosing ways to do things 


The Stall 





Kids Corner, featuring my handy work with some table cloths :) 




Above, Coz at the festival. Below, Coz's book. Featuring new artists, including myself :) 




Pulling in the crowds :D






















Working collaboratively is definitely something I'd like to carry on exploring in the near future. I think everyone managed to sell some work including myself, and networking is proving to be a great way to promote each other. As mentioned above I have already been featured in a book and HGT are also featuring me on their website. So in return check out their blogs and webpages, they are a fantastic collaboration as well as a group of highly skilled individual and unique artists! So look out for this logo...

Long time no see...

Well I can safely say that I have never been as busy in the workshops as I have been this last month or so! The pressure is on and the end of my degree is looming. I have just realized that in no time at all these fantastic facilities will no longer be at my fingertips! So I've pretty much been living at college!!
   Watch this space for work in progress coming soon, and up and coming events to include...

HGT at Volskfest, 27th -30th May
 Plymouth College of Art Summer Show, 20th - 29th June....
