Found Objects

Yesterday in Sculpture class we had to go out and scrounge in the car park and surrounds so we could make a piece out of "found objects"
I was lucky enough to find an umbrella skeleton and having just recently bought 2 books on Alexander Calder (the bloke who created Mobiles and large outdoor sculptures) you can see where my ideas came from once I found the umbrella.

I'm the queen of found objects and have sooo much stuff here at home that I can take in to work with next week.
When I was a kid and go to the tip with dad, we'd take one load and come home with another, and you should have seen the treasures that I found when I helped my sister clean out the garage recently when she moved mum.
