"Have patience with all things, but firstly with yourself."

Yeah yeah yeah ... Whatever. 

No like seriously now guys (said in a deep and arty voice like that of Loyd Grossman maybe) this is a special treaties for you sexy sewers out there.  And my goddd we are sexy, we just need to find the opportunity to really show those people out there what we are made of.  

ANDONEDAYWEWILL. 

Yeah anyway,  back to Collect, the international show of 

CONTEMPORWARY OBJECTS.  

WOOPWOOPWOOP!

Get your tickets as ITIS going to be onehelluva sexy exhibition- there will be awe inspiring objets d'art ALLOVERTHEGODDARNPLACE. 

I have been having a look at the other artists.... JEEWHIZZ (replacing swear word here) 

There's some hot sexy potatoes in there... its SO exciting.

 I am however probably not going to be sexy as I have abandoned myself for my art. 

I have lost the art of communication (I promise it is temporary) and I have sallow skin and glazed whirring eyes and dull hair.  Never mind my legs!

Here are some MORRRRRRE snaps of my progress.  

Not my legs.

In this series of 5 works I am exploring the notion of movement by intuitively creating explosive, organic designs which work in a sequence.  I attempt to produce embroidery that despite its labour intensity, has immediate dynamic impact and emulates spontaneous yet surreal actions.  

This sequence is inspired by the odyssey of the tumble weed fracturing at it's roots, the remarkable dispersal of its seeds and the freedom of having no direction.  As the wind blows the tumbleweed along, like an idea, each work develops and grows in intensity, as if creating its own energetic persona.
