Masking Tape

I know that this may sound really weird but I have a small masking tape obsession...  this is a brilliant japanese company who do the most lovely stuff I've seen so far http://www.masking-tape.jp/

Nora Folk & Alexis Harding

When I was in Liverpool recently I saw this fantastic collar by Nora Folk in the Walker Art Gallery.  It's made of hand dyes nylon monofilament knotted together around the neck.  Beautiful in person.

At the same gallery I also saw this stunning painting by Alexis Harding.  This image doesn't capture the sense of movement that you get looking at in person.  There's so much texture in it because of the layers of oil and gloss paint that I just love.

Shadow Land

Experimenting with shadows through some of my wirework.  Possible beginnings of print ideas?

Lighting Developement

I've been working on updating some lamps that I bought in a charity a while ago. For some reason it's really hard to find a low voltage bulb that won't hurt your eyes. Can't wait to play with the shadows.
