friends in the right places

Late last week i was lucky enough to be invited to an exhibition preview showcasing my friend Nina"s work, which i must say was a lovely collage and cleverly executed.

I was asked to also partake using a poem as a stimulus for my work, i am currently exploring the outcomes and here are a few images that are to be worked on.

these are responses to the movement of the water in the river and also the distortion created.

although im home for the easter break,

the work doesn't stop!

YSP new exhibition.

Headed down the road to Bretton a few days ago to see the new Exhibition The Yorkshire Sculpture Park have,

YSP presents an extraordinary body of new and recent work by renowned Spanish artist Jaume Plensa. Encouraging tactile and sensory exploration, this vibrant exhibition includes a 50-metre curtain of poetry made of suspended steel letters, large illuminated sculptures in the landscape, and engraved gongs that visitors can strike to fill the gallery with sound.

its friday

after satisfying my craving for sushi once again it was time to a bit of rummaging, in newcastle the vast majority of the charity shops are on one street..perfect for some dedicated rummaging time, i bought a few items, but my best buy of the day was this kodak camera which came with 3 rolls of film as well, i intend on taking this home this easter to get some good snaps of the wakefield waterfront to help me with my FMP.
