Water colour/ collage, shapes

These are a variety of work, with a similar feel of colour and shape. I really like this style, especially the work of James Gulliver Hancock








Above, Some stunning works by James Gulliver Hancock, a very talented Aussie, that we should keep an eye on. And now I know how did the Lenka cover and the ABC ad. Both of which caught my attention.

oh christmas tree

This year I have decided to do something a little different for a xmas tree. Rather than ye ole pine tree, I'm opting for white sticks. This may sound odd.. but I'm not completely mad.
You see I had seen these twig trees in shops used for displaying jewelery. I wanted something to display my spare bird cage decorations on, and thought such a thing would be perfect.

Such as this:
(Manzanita tree)

So far I have one twiggy thing I bought. and I intend to paint so more twigs white to go with it.

Stay tuned for the final 'alternative' Christmas tree...

Paul Smith Fish eye



You know something is 'in' when a designer puts their name on it. Lomography is becoming increasingly popular, and now Paul Smith has collaboration with Lomography Cameras to create an Exclusive limited edition Paul Smith fisheye No2. I must say, I quite like it.
