Valentines Gift

So this is what I made for Valentines Day. Well not so much made, more extracted. I have regularly photographed what I call 'Love Knots' which I often see in lengths of softwood. I thought I would see if I could remove it and the result is below.

The Heart sits in its own natural cup from which it separates from at the point it was extracted from the wood.

A gift

Love this that I received the other day from Sarah, a student at Chelsea College who has cast these lovely plaster 'plug in socket' as part of a collection. This went straight up on the wall. 


The cast has amazing detail with the back wood chip wall paper with the whole thing seemingly ripped out of the wall.

I popped into the Saatchi Gallery the other day to have a look at the new exhibition, Gesamtkunstwerk: New Art From Germany. Certainly some interesting things to find there at the moment. Below are a few images I shot. For more info go to http://www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/

A Box for the Hall

Thought it was about time I made a little storage box for the hall. A perfect place to keep some special shoes in! I will make one for my shoes some day!!




At the end of the hall was a perfect place for a storage unit. Made from Walnut and Black MDF it is a perfect place to keep some special shoes out of harms way.
