Redone a lot of work...





So here they are pictures of work I have reworked for the hand in on Monday.
This included Hans Rabbit, Wright's Soap box, Excessive noise editorial, and one you have never seen but I have reworked from the original Sam the lion thing... stuff... the tutors can never make up their mind what the projects are called. Enjoy (I will post my Wasteland project another time)

Incredibly Freaking Bored

And this is what the season is all about!
Being bored and falling out with family. But as I have no transport to see the few friends I do have here at home, I can get lots of university work. Watch this space for lots of lovely things... or not... depends how good they are. I'm currently working on a folding book, three canvases, working on old stuff, two tattoos and a magazine cover. So lots of things to gorp at at some point soon.
Have a very happy consumerism day

Editorial 2nd attempt.


My second attempt at the Flying the nest article brief for the Guardian. In my personal opinion this is a lot better than the previous try. This is a combination of the birds flying the nest and the heart breaking of the mother etc etc...

Soap Box Project



We were asked to redesign a soap box design for Wright's Soap. It was going to be distributed for free at next years Glastonbury (not really, just so we had a theme and audience to consider). I decided to make collectable models in the soap so you could make your own mini soap festival. This is the result, the box is very orange, the original soap was too.

Transforming Rabbit


This is the finished image all put together in the frame. I re-photographed this now so it looks better.
Any way back to this piece... This is about a rabbit that keeps transforming. His tail is curling into a new form. I don't paint so often anymore, so it is nice to know I can still do it well after a long break. I want to break into making 3D work painting on objects or creating designs to go on things. So this probably represents a style I will follow up on in the future.

Rabbit transformation





This is for the story by Kurt Schwitters "Lucky Hans" illustrated by Irvine Peacock. It isn't finished yet but I thought I would show you all. I will put the full description up with the finished piece.
