If you're not affected you're not paying attention

Maggi Hambling, Scallop, 2003

Although initially surrounded by controversy of being on a heritage beach I believe Scallop has surpassed this by becoming part of the Aldeburgh beach scape. You can view this sculpture from so many different angles and get a different perspective each time. The metallic surface reflects different light making the colour ever changing and I would imagine it being fantastic at sunset.

Another photo I’m quite proud of, angry seagulls in flight!

Tractor details

I recently visited Aldeburgh in Suffolk and did a bit of photography. I found this rusty old tractor on the beach (I think there used to move all the stones!) and totally fell in love with it. You just cant make this effect the rust has, it’s a mark of time and weathering which just gives fantastic results!

Rachel Green, Grandma with Owls, mixed media with crochet, 2012

This is a small collage piece I made for my Grandma after finding some old photos. I’ve started getting into crochet and had the idea of incorporating it into my collage work, I think it works well with this piece.

Also noticing an owl theme in my work…no idea where that’s come from my Mum likes owls so guess it’s apt in this work, ha ha!

a few group shots i’ve taken of the objects i’ve done recently

I’m really liking the mixture of colours its a huge change from the group shots i took of the work last year. I think I’m still developing but the work I’ve produced recently is a huge step up for what i presented at my graduate show so it’s a good sign to keep going with it!

Soundsuits

These are so much fun.  I love how each costume is bizarre and colorful.  I bet it is amazing to watch them move in person and during a performance.

Here is a gallery that represents his work: Jack Shainman Gallery

Here is his website, which is incredibly creative in its presentation: SoundsuitShop

I’ve seen his work in person and it’s absolutely phenomenal. If you ever have the chance to see it, see it.

I have finally finished my Tree of Life piece!! Loosely based on the Myan stories that surround it, lots of inspiration gained from ‘The Fountain’ film and graphic novel. My first big piece of the year - slowly but surely! Enjoy!
