Assemblage sculptures

a round up of some of my Assemblage sculptures from first term at Art school



these next 2 are work in progress pieces, we are on hols for the next 2 weeks so I always take photos before they get packed up so I have an idea of what I was playing with when I go back


I'll post my soapstone carvings in the next post

Family Happenings

we had my nephew Gerry, his wife Xandri and their little one Liam come and visit us from New Zealand recently.
Liam was being camera shy but also I don't think he wanted to go

but I finally got him

now don't everyone die of shock - but I bought new shoes a couple of weeks ago AND THEY'RE NOT CROCS,
this is one pair, haven't worn the others yet

Guest speaker

Here are some photos of my presentation
